Lodge Cast Iron Round Griddle 10.5" — Pre-Seasoned, PFAS-Free, Even-Heat Retention

The Lodge 10.5-inch round seasoned cast iron griddle is a pre-seasoned, PFAS-free cookware piece built to deliver even heat and a naturally nonstick surface for stovetop, oven, grill, or camp-stove use.

Built on more than a century of American foundry experience, this compact round griddle combines heavy-duty cast iron construction with a ready-to-use seasoned finish. It’s made to retain heat, spread temperature evenly across the cooking area, and develop a better nonstick patina the more you cook with it. Because the griddle contains only iron and oil in its finish, it is free from PFOA, PTFE, and PFAS chemicals—offering a chemical-free cooking surface for everyday meals and outdoor adventures alike.

How does this griddle perform across different heat sources?

The Lodge round griddle is engineered for multi-source heat: it works well on gas, electric, induction (with proper cookware coupling), in the oven, or on a camp stove and grill. Its dense cast iron core absorbs heat and releases it steadily, minimizing hot spots and keeping foods at a consistent cooking temperature.

• Stovetop-to-oven safe for finishing dishes under high heat
• Grill and camp-stove compatible for outdoor searing and toasting
• Heavy construction for long, even heat retention

What makes the seasoning and finish practical for everyday use?

This griddle arrives pre-seasoned with a natural oil layer so it’s ready for pancakes, tortillas, and vegetables right away. The seasoning improves with regular cooking and proper care, creating a smoother release over time without synthetic coatings.

• Pre-seasoned finish requires no initial treatment before cooking
• Only iron and oil used—no PFOA, PTFE, or PFAS chemicals
• Surface develops a stronger nonstick patina with repeated use

How do I clean and maintain the griddle to keep it cooking well?

Cleaning and upkeep are straightforward: rinse with hot water, scrub with a brush or nonmetal scrubber if needed, dry thoroughly, and rub with a light coating of oil to protect the seasoning. Avoid harsh soap or dishwashers to preserve the seasoned surface and extend the griddle’s life.

• Hand wash with hot water; use minimal soap sparingly if necessary
• Dry immediately and apply a thin layer of cooking oil after cooling
• Re-season occasionally by heating with oil to maintain the nonstick layer

How big is this griddle and what foods is it best for?

The 10.5-inch round cooking surface is a compact all-purpose size that fits single-pan breakfasts and small family meals. It’s ideal for pancakes, flatbreads, quesadillas, sautéed vegetables, searing small cuts, and reheating slices with even browning.

• 10.5-inch round surface for single-serve to small-batch cooking
• Perfect for pancakes, tortillas, quesadillas, and vegetables
• Compact size that stores easily and works well on small burners

It’s especially suited for people who value cookware that improves with use, those who cook a lot of griddle-style dishes, and anyone seeking versatile, PFAS-free cast iron that performs on stove, oven, or open flame.
