Tired of eating Teflon

Ive been leaning towards stainless and a can of pam.

Thats my problem too. Ive told her 10k times not to cook past medium with non sticks. And not to run them through the dishwasher. Ive since started choosing my battles.

Ditto. We've made it 25 years so I'm learning.... slowly.

Get rid of that Margarine too, while you are at it.

You can sort of 'season' stainless. The frying pans we have are basically non stick with VERY little oil (I'm an olive oil junkie).

Took me a while to get used to stainless but luv it now. When I'm searing something and it sticks , that means it's not ready to flip yet haha

If it matters to you, the biggest problem I had was trying to find stainless cookware NOT made in China and ideally made in the US. I wasn't going to pay All Clad money. Had to settle on Cuisinart, made in France.

I finally threw out the wifes old 5 qt non stick pan. What is your preferred non stick medium that wont transfer to the food? Shes got some copper pots that have not held up that great but Im not sure she doesnt over heat them either. I dont cook so I dont know much. So are copper and ceramic pretty much the two best options?

Cast iron. I'm slowly getting my cast iron skillets and Dutch ovens seasoned properly, but it's not a quick process. I like Crisco to season with, and have lately taken to seasoning them on my kamado.

I can now fry an egg on my best skillet (my great grandmother's) with no sticking. And I don't have to re-oil after washing! The secret is in baking on a polymerized finish on the pots/pans.

Quality stainless is the way to go. No problem with sticking, been using the same pans 12+ years. Olive oil is your friend, as well.

I love the cast iron Dutch ovens for making Biscuits and Cobblers. But if you choose the Dutch oven make sure you get the ones with a rimmed cover to hold coals over the fire...Use to do it all the time when camping..Can't beat it!!
