Great book with pretty easy recipes August 4, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am an average cook, so I like easy recipes. This book definitely fits the bill. I plan to use it a lot with my new cast iron skillet.
Recipes look great but the title is deceiving. July 1, 2008 8 out of 11 found this review helpful
Yes, the recipes seem delicious and the one I made tasted great, but I bought this as a cast iron SKILLET cookbook - for the best PAN in my kitchen (just like the name says). In reality only about three quarters of the recipes utilise a standard 12" cast iron skillet - the rest call for a deep skillet, a dutch oven, specialist pans such as ebelskivers or an 8" or 10" pan as opposed to the 12" pan that I own. (For the record, I don't know what would actually happen if you tried the 8" or 10" recipes with the 12" pan but the recipes which specify the smaller pan sizes are generally egg-based or baked so I imagine it's important to use the correct size).
An Iron Skillet Bible! June 2, 2008 This is not a 'big' book, but one that will keep you happily cooking in your cast iron skillet for years to come. Recipes for all seasons. If they don't have it in this book, you don't need to cook it. Check it out and see all the recipes they offer you. They describe them better than I could. If you own a cast iron skillet, you really need to own this book.
the best cook book I own! May 11, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have literally bought hundreds of products from Amazon over the past several years and this is the first I've taken the time to write a review for. The recipes in this cook book use basic ingredients that are most likely already in your Kitchen. I've created about half of the recipes and I can easily say that at least 10 are regulars in my meals already. I am now a huge fan of my cast iron pan and this cookbook!

.
The introduction of the book is dedicated to cast iron pan itself; selection, care and use. The rest of the book is recipes that use the cast iron pan. With cast iron, all you need is the basics to get started and lots of practice.
The soda bread recipe brought me back to my childhood in grandma's kitchen, that alone is worth the price of this book.
My favorite recipe was the Rose-Mary Crusted Rack of Lamb, and there are several others.
