Is Carbon Steel the Best Pan You’ve Never Tried? (Here’s the Truth)

In this video, I tell you the truth about carbon steel cookware. You'll learn the pros and cons and how it compares to other types of cookware like cast iron, stainless steel, and non-stick. I also share cooking, cleaning, and maintenance tips so you can avoid beginner mistakes and get the most out of your pans. So, if you're thinking about buying carbon steel or are hesitant to use the pans you've already bought because of the seasoning process or the ugly appearance, this video is for you.

Thank you to Made In for sponsoring this video. I’ve been recommending Made In since I first tested their pans in 2018. If you’re just getting into carbon steel or looking to upgrade, they are one of the best brands you can buy.
