Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet 10.25-Inch
The verdict
Pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, usable out of the box with no seasoning ritual, and safe on stovetop, oven, grill, and campfire, including induction. At 10.25 inches it fits standard burners and cabinets where the 12-inch crowds them, and at 5.4 pounds it is the lighter Lodge to live with daily.
Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet 10.25-Inch — about $24.90 on sale ($29.99 list) · ≈4.5/5 from 114,000+ Amazon reviews · the one-pan size for one or two people — and a different pan from the 12-inch Lodge already in the catalog.

Blind details
For a blind shopper, size is the whole decision: the 12-inch is the family pan, the 10.25-inch is the one-pan size for one or two. Weight is the spec to respect without sight — 5.4 pounds plus food, so one-handed pouring is the failure mode reviewers flag, and a silicone handle holder is a cheap fix. The handle gets fully hot, so the holder is not optional.
Honest caveats: heavy, needs hand-drying and oiling discipline, and the limited-edition USA Icons variant shares the size at the same sale price — build the standard black skillet, not the limited edition. As of October 2026 the sale price was $24.90 against a $29.99 list.
