Paella Pan?
OLD NORTH STATE BBQ CO.
Posts: 412
I'll be making a run at paella next weekend and was curious as to what pan I should purchase. I'm reading mixed reviews on most steel/aluminum pans. Lodge makes a handle-less 17 inch skillet that could work, but I'm not willing to spend $100+ on enamel coated cast iron. Not even sure cast iron is appropriate for paella. Open to any and all suggestions from you fine people. Thanks in advance.

You want the thin carbon steel kind. Check them out at tienda.com (La Tienda)
they need to be responsive to the heat. Both cooling and heating. Cast iron is too heavy

Wouldn't a wok work well?
