    Steakhouse-Style Searing with Premium Carbon Steel

    Bring exceptional searing performance into your kitchen with the Alva Black Angus Carbon Steel Frying Pan, designed for high-heat cooking, flavorful browning, and lasting durability.

    Made from premium carbon steel, this versatile frying pan combines excellent heat responsiveness with a naturally seasoned cooking surface that improves with continued use. Its pre-seasoned finish offers an alternative to traditional synthetic nonstick coatings, developing better food release as the seasoning builds over time.

    Whether you're searing steak, preparing burgers, cooking chicken, or sautéing fresh vegetables, the Black Angus frying pan delivers the versatility and performance needed for delicious homemade meals.

    Unlike carbon steel pans with wooden handles, the Black Angus features a stainless steel handle and is oven-safe up to 500°F, making it ideal for recipes that begin on the stovetop and finish in the oven.

    Available in two sizes—9.5" and 11"—to accommodate different cooking needs.

    How to Care for Your Carbon Steel Frying Pan

    Carbon steel requires proper seasoning and maintenance, but its cooking performance can improve over time.

    1. Maintain the Seasoning: Cook with a small amount of oil or fat to help develop the naturally seasoned surface.

    2. Hand Wash Only: Avoid dishwashers and prolonged soaking.

    3. Dry Completely: Thoroughly dry the pan immediately after washing to help prevent rust.

    4. Apply a Thin Layer of Oil: Lightly oil the cooking surface after cleaning to maintain seasoning.

    5. Limit Acidic Ingredients Initially: Avoid prolonged cooking with acidic foods until the seasoning is well developed.

    6. Re-Season When Necessary: If rust develops, clean the affected area, dry thoroughly, and restore the seasoning.

    7. Use Oven Protection: Always use oven mitts when handling cookware that has been heated in the oven.
