12-Inch Cast Iron Skillet - Seasoned Misfit
Misfits are final sale but still covered by our lifetime warranty. Not eligible for additional discounts.
Bigger Is Better
Our large cast iron skillet is great for family meals. Think 3-4 steaks or cutlets, or a whole head of cauliflower if that's your thing. This size is similar to a vintage size #10.
Misfits will have small cosmetic imperfections that won’t affect performance. You’ll still get the same smooth, naturally non-stick cooking surface our cookware is known for, ready to use straight out of the box.
What Is a Misfit?
Also known as factory seconds, misfits are pans that don't quite meet our quality standards. These are typically cosmetic imperfections that won't affect cooking performance.
You may see scuffs or scratches from our finishing process or small dimples on the cast surface of the cookware. All misfits are marked with two dots under the helper handle next to the casting date for traceability.
What Is Seasoning?
Seasoning is a layer of fat or oil that is baked onto the iron to protect it and aid in its non-stick properties.
This pan has already been seasoned with a blend of canola, grapeseed, and sunflower oil and will arrive ready to use, right out of the box. This oil blend is 100% certified non-GMO and contains no animal products, so it’s vegetarian/vegan friendly.

Customer Reviews
Several things that I love about stargazer cast-iron skillets. Of course they’re perfect for cooking just about anything and I love the even heat distribution and ease of cleanup. Also what I really enjoy is everything cast into the bottom of the skillet the name of the logo building in the USA and also, each skillet is an individual because it has the date that it was cast on. A great family heirloom.
Out of the box it was gorgeous. And performed well. Worth every penny.
Love that it’s non stick and NON TOXIC! I don’t need to worry about scrapes and toxins. One pan and done! Wish I invested so much sooner in this amazing product! Would recommend to all! Pic is right after use! 5 star pan! You won’t regret buying it. An heirloom piece for generations to enjoy!
This has been such a nice pan to have. I cook eggs without them sticking, bake brownies, and use it for all of my stove top cooking as well. Very satisfied with the results! We now own 2 of these pans, the 10" and 12". Would love to see an 8" introduced in the future! Lids would also be amazing to have!
My husband gave me this as a birthday gift. I'm no chef, but I am passionate about cooking. I've got several types of cast iron & this is, by far, my favorite! A little heavy, but manageable. I pan fry or bake chicken in this pan at least once a week. It cooks evenly & cleans up beautifully. This pan will get passed down to my kids for sure. All that's missing is a lid! *nudge, nudge* I'm looking forward to putting the braiser on my Christmas wish list!
Had Friend who uses all makes of cast Iron exclusivley ( 4 makes ) gave me a list of all. Did my research and chose the Stargazer because of reviews , design , and cost. Told my friend I chose the 12" stargazer and he responded with a picture of his with the commentary " My well seasoned go to "
Good by to all my old non stick!!! From the first dish cooked, top shelf nonstick performer .
Thankyou Stargazer.
Super Happy !!!
