Engineered specifically for the Traeger Induction™ cooktop, this Cast Iron Skillet is perfect for finishing steaks with a screaming-hot sear, sautéing veggies, and more.It's designed to work seamlessly with Traeger Induction for premium performance, and it's made with enameled cast iron so it's ready to use right out of the box.
The Traeger Induction system brings restaurant-level cooking capability to your outdoor kitchen, and this cast iron skillet is the perfect companion for unlocking its full potential. Induction cooking heats incredibly fast and provides precise temperature control, while cast iron's heat retention ensures consistent results. Together, they create a cooking system that rivals any professional kitchen.
This skillet excels at finishing steaks with that screaming-hot sear that creates a perfect crust while keeping the interior at your target temperature. After smoking a ribeye or strip steak to medium-rare on your Traeger grill, transfer it to this preheated skillet for 30-60 seconds per side to develop a deeply caramelized crust. The cast iron holds extreme heat without cooling down when the cold steak hits the surface, ensuring consistent searing power.
Beyond steaks, this skillet is perfect for sautéing vegetables, frying eggs, making pan sauces, searing scallops, cooking smash burgers, and countless other techniques. The flat cooking surface provides even heat distribution, while the cast iron's thermal mass prevents hot spots and maintains steady temperatures. Whether you're cooking delicate fish or searing thick pork chops, this skillet delivers.
The enameled finish makes this cast iron ready to cook with right out of the box—no seasoning required. Traditional cast iron requires careful seasoning and maintenance to build up a non-stick patina, but the enamel coating provides that non-stick surface immediately. The enamel also protects the iron from rust and makes cleanup easier since you can use soap and water without damaging the seasoning.
Being specifically engineered for Traeger Induction means this skillet is optimized for the unique characteristics of induction cooking. The flat bottom ensures maximum contact with the induction surface for efficient energy transfer. The size and weight are balanced for the Traeger Induction cooktop, providing stability without being unwieldy. The handle is designed for comfortable maneuvering even when the skillet is loaded with food.
Induction cooking heats only the pan, not the surrounding air, making it safer and more comfortable to use outdoors. You get precise temperature control with instant response—turn down the heat and the temperature drops immediately, unlike gas or charcoal that continue radiating heat. This control is invaluable when you're working with delicate sauces or need to hold specific temperatures.
Whether you're finishing steaks after a low-and-slow smoke, making eggs and bacon for breakfast, sautéing onions and peppers, or creating a pan sauce to accompany your grilled protein, this cast iron skillet is an essential tool for getting the most from your Traeger Induction cooktop.
