Holy Crap! $400 for a 12” cast iron skillet that sold out on the first day of release

People pay big tag pricing on high end stuff (which are not high end) just because of the name brand. Let me say it again, "A well-known name brand." That includes many other stuffs!"

What happened to lodge iron skillet?

They just released a made in the USA enamel-covered cast iron skillet. It's expensive. Most their stuff is Chinese.

ETA - I don't think Yeti makes anything in the US.

You can certainly tell who EDC’s the High points and Taurusses by the ugly jealous rage bubbling within this page. None of y’all get an invite to my next cookout featuring wagyu fillet deep fried in French duck fat and lightly browned in my fine ass Yeti cast iron skillet. Then, lightly diced with one of those dumb ass shovel sized knives all the cool kids have now.

You never know when you might get attacked by an angry tomato. Or maybe that wagyu ain't dead yet. It can get ugly in the kitchen. When it does, you want a kitchen knife that looks like it was previously carried during the Viking age.

Lodge cast iron is still made in Tennessee. Their enameled stuff is chines which is why it's a big deal they have that skillet. They know they'd lose their market on their skillets if they went to china

You're right. Most their enamel cast iron is made in China, not their other stuff.

Lodge is about $50 for the same skillet. I’ll go ahead and say it….
