The Facts, in a Nutshell

We’ve been recommending Field Company cast iron cookware for years. Through today only, you can take 30% off slightly imperfect pans, including our longtime favorite No. 8 Cast Iron Skillet and the perfect egg pan, the No. 5 Cast Iron Chef’s Skillet.

One of the best fancy cast iron cookware brands, Field Company, is having a rare sale today only. Through midnight tonight, you can take 30% off all of its factory seconds—slightly imperfect pots and pans that are still high-quality and safe to use. 

We’ve recommended Field Company’s cast iron cookware for years because it is meticulously crafted and arrives perfectly pre-seasoned. Like all cast iron cookware, it gets better with use, but you can cook with these pans straight out of the box. Their smooth-as-butter surfaces are easier to clean and maintain, making them a great choice for cast iron beginners or cooks who really care about the aesthetics of their pans. 

Here’s what we’d buy—and what we’re telling our friends to snap up before it’s gone:

The Best Deals In Field Company’s Seconds Sale

No. 8 Cast Iron Skillet

$165 $115 at Fieldcompany.com

You really cannot go wrong with this workhorse of a skillet. With a 10-inch diameter, it’s plenty roomy. You can use it to sear chicken breasts, roast a batch of vegetables, bake cornbread, or flip perfect, golden brown pancakes. Its slightly flared sides make it easy to pour from, and we love the mini helper handle. It’s been a winner in our review for years, and a few of our editors own one.

$125 $87 at Fieldcompany.com

This new offering from Field caught our attention, with its sloped sides that make tossing and sautéeing practically effortless. It’s slick, smooth, and lightweight, and perfectly sized for fried eggs. It’s also the cast iron pan I reach for most often in my single household. This pan has never gone on sale until today.

No, you don’t need a special bread oven for homemade sourdough. This is the cast iron pot for bread bakers. It’ll get rip-roaring hot for the perfect crust, and unlike dedicated bread ovens, you can also use this one to braise, simmer, roast, and sear. Unlike enameled cast iron Dutch ovens, you don’t need to baby it with silicone or wooden utensils. 

No. 12 Cast Iron Skillet

Cooking for a crowd? Or just searing a really big piece of meat? You need the No. 12, which measures just over 13 inches in diameter. The helper handle is especially, well, handy here because this huge pan weighs eight pounds. It’s also perfect for hosting pizza night—imagine all the Foolproof Pan Pizzas you can make in it!
