It was less than 2 years ago when I was lucky enough to receive the Holy Grail of wedding registries - the much-coveted All-Clad Copper Core 10-Piece Set. It arrived in a box as big as Rhode Island, and contained every pan a newlywed foodie could ever want or need.
Or so I thought.
A few weeks later, a smaller box arrived at my house, baring the All-Clad name. In it, was the "free bonus" pan that was included with the purchase of my 10-piece set - The Stainless Steel Non-Stick Round Grill Pan. Seeing that the grill pan was non-stick, I was immediately skeptical. How could it possibly work to achieve a nice charry crust? What would I ever use it for, when I already owned a cast-iron grill pan? Was this pan just going to clutter my kitchen?
Boy, was I ever wrong. This pan has quickly elevated itself to A-list status in my kitchen, and is especially useful in the summer months, when short cooking times and quick clean ups make the hot days more bearable. The size is ideal for 2 - 3 large shell steaks, and can easily accommodate 2 pounds of chicken thighs. The pan leaves beautiful grill marks on veggies and meats, heats up quickly, and cleans in a snap.
I have seen them online for as much as $100 and as little as $50, so shop around. Its worth the effort.
