Look what MRS. SGH found for 10 bucks. This is why I have kept her for over half a century! Seasoning it right now!image

Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Nice pick up. Will you use that on a large? If so I'd like to see a pic of it on the large.

    It won't fit my friend. It's a little to big. The pan it's self is 17 inches and counting the handles it's 22 inches over all. I will do some frying in it on my turkey fryer and some cooks on my larger cookers. Thanks for looking my friend.

    You raised my curiosity with your question so I had to go try it. The pan must be only 15 and not 17. It will sit in the egg but the dome will not close due to the handles. For some reason I thought the lodge double handled pans were 17 inches. My mistake.image

    Nice score. You could use that for raised grid, open-dome cooks... fajitas or something like that?

    Great find!  

    @charlesmaneri mentioned in another thread that he trimmed the handles off to make it fit his large.  



    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Thank you all for the kind words. I would cut the handles off but I don't think I could lift it anymore without them. Again thanks my friends .
