Paella

Kjunbob

Hello everyone... I am in the mood for some good paella.  Any recommendations of a good, but not too expensive, pan to use on a Large BGE?  Also any recipe recommendations?

Thanks

I use this deBuyer carbon steel pan. It is useful in many other applications as well.

I love this website, and his Paella section is great!  He mentions a few pans, too.

My family wont let me try another recipe than this one: https://www.chowhound.com/recipes/grilled-paella-mixta-paella-with-seafood-and-meat-29656   I follow the recipe and cook with the pan direct on the platesetter (feet downwards)

I like the regular old Lodge 17" double loop-handle skillet.

I bought the $12 pan from Ceramic Grill Store.  Works great.

Thanks for the comments and advice!  I will get a pan from Amazon.  Both recipes look great.

This is the one we have

Mauviel Paella Pan

SciAggie

Paellapans.com is a good resource.

They have solid recipes. If you decide to get larger pans, the pata negra pans are high quality. You can tell the difference when cooking over wood fires.

@lousubcap I do love to cook paella. I can’t wait to make one with homemade chorizo.

Did you make Portugeuse-style, or Mexican-style?
