We designed our 13" Camp Comal with a few main ideas in mind: Low profile for easy access, large cook surface, and compact handles for maximum space saving.

Beautiful craftsmanship! I gave three hand-forged carbon steel pans as gifts for Christmas. They were heirloom-quality, and the team was happy to answer all my questions.
— Amanda Osburn

I really appreciate the hand craftsmanship that went into making this carbon steel pan. Each one is unique—no two are exactly alike. Not cookie-cutter pans, truly hand-forged heirloom cookware.
— Dan Smith

Absolutely amazing craftsmanship. Each hand-forged carbon steel pan is unique and beautiful. The heirloom-quality cookware and kind-hearted owners make this an exceptional experience. Can't say enough good things!

1. Wash your pan with soap and warm water to remove dirt and the coconut oil we use to seal the pan for shipping.

2. Apply a thin layer of Crisbee Cream, beef tallow, or a high-smoke-point oil of your choice to the inside and outside of the pan.

3. Wipe off the excess with a clean rag, leaving only a thin coating on the pan.
Place the pan upside down in the oven and bake at 400°F for 1 hour.

4. Let the pan cool completely. Repeat the seasoning process 2–3 times to build a durable, non-stick surface.

5. Start cooking on lower than normal temperatures so you can get the hang of how the pan heats. We've also noticed that frying high starch items in an oil of you choice does well to help build your season.

Optional: Watch our video tutorial for additional tips on seasoning and maintenance.
