Made In Carbon Steel Cookware
Why Top Chefs Choose Made In Carbon Steel
Carbon steel is the best-kept secret in professional kitchens, and Made In has perfected the recipe. It offers the unparalleled heat retention of cast iron but at a fraction of the weight, allowing for the precise 'tossing' and movement required for delicate proteins and high-heat stir-frys. Unlike synthetic non-stick surfaces that degrade over time, carbon steel becomes better with every use.
Each piece in this collection is designed to transition seamlessly from a high-output burner to a 1200-degree grill or oven. Whether you are achieving the perfect Maillard reaction on a ribeye or sliding an omelet onto a plate, these pans provide the responsiveness that stainless steel lacks and the seasoning capabilities that make cast iron a family heirloom. Endorsed by culinary icons like Tom Colicchio and tested in the world's most demanding restaurants, this cookware is built for those who take their craft seriously. This isn't just a purchase; it's an investment in a 'forever pan' that builds a natural, slick patina the more you cook with it.

Made In 12-inch Carbon Steel Perforated Grill Frying Pan
The Made In Carbon Steel Perforated Grill Frying Pan brings frying-pan cooking to the grill. Its 53 perforations let flame and smoke reach the food, while the solid rim and deep sloped walls keep shrimp, sliced peppers, and chopped vegetables from slipping between the grates. Set it on a gas grill, a charcoal kettle, or a campfire grate and toss the contents the way you would in a skillet, with char and smoke flavor a solid pan cannot give.
Why It PerformsPerforated floor: Dime-sized holes let direct flame and smoke reach the food, so vegetables char and shrimp pick up grill flavor instead of steaming.Long handle for tossing: A single long handle lets you shake and toss the pan one-handed, the way you would a skillet on the stove.Deep, sloped walls: Food stays in the pan when you shake or toss it, and the walls make it easy to push ingredients from a hot zone to a cooler one.Built for fire: Carbon steel takes the direct heat of a grill or open fire without coatings to protect.Improves with use: The seasoning darkens and the surface becomes more slick each time the pan is cooked in and oiled.
What It Does BestShishito peppers, sliced onions, and mixed grilled vegetablesShrimp, scallops, and other small seafoodChicken wingsGrilled fruit such as peaches and pineapple

Made In Carbon Steel Seasoning Wax, 6 oz.
Made In Carbon Steel Seasoning Wax keeps carbon steel and cast iron cookware protected and slick between uses. It blends rice bran wax with two high-smoke-point oils, canola and grapeseed, in a solid form that goes on in a thin, even layer without the drips and puddles of liquid oil. Use it to build the first layers of seasoning on a new pan, or wipe on a little after each wash to guard against rust.
Why It WorksHigh-smoke-point oils: Canola and grapeseed oil can be heated hot enough to bond to the steel as seasoning.Wax for an even coat: Rice bran wax gives the blend a firm texture that spreads thin, which is what good seasoning needs. Thick layers turn sticky.Daily upkeep in seconds: A quick wipe after drying leaves a protective film that keeps rust off.
Use It OnEvery Made In carbon steel piece, including the Made In 10-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan, the Made In 13.5-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Wok, and the Made In Professional Carbon Steel Griddle, as well as cast iron.

What Each Piece DoesCleaning brush: Stiff natural-fiber bristles scrub away food after cooking while staying gentle on the seasoning.Chainmail scrubber: Stainless steel rings lift carbonized bits and surface rust that a brush leaves behind.Seasoning wax: Rice bran wax and high-smoke-point oils go on thin to protect the pan after every wash and rebuild seasoning after a heavy scrub.

Made In 13.5-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Wok
The Made In Seasoned Carbon Steel Wok brings restaurant-style stir-frying to a home range. Its flat base sits steady on induction, electric, and gas burners without a wok ring, and the conical walls rise high enough to toss noodles and fried rice without spilling. Thin carbon steel heats quickly, and the pre-seasoned surface means it is ready for the first stir-fry.
Why It PerformsFlat base, conical walls: The small flat center makes full contact with a flat burner for intense heat, while the sloped sides give room to push cooked food away from the heat.Light, responsive steel: 1.5 mm carbon steel heats and cools quickly when you adjust the burner, which is what stir-frying needs.Stay Cool handle: The long, riveted stainless steel handle stays comfortable while tossing.Seasoning that builds: The surface darkens and grows slicker with each use.

Made In 11-inch Tom Colicchio Carbon Steel Frying Pan
The Tom Colicchio Carbon Steel Frying Pan started with a pan the chef bought at Zabar’s in the 1980s and cooked with for decades. Made In spent 18 months working with Colicchio, using 3D scanning to capture the shape of that pan, then built it in thicker Swedish carbon steel with a long, solid brass handle. The result is a limited-edition searing pan that feels like a well-used favorite from the first cook.
Why It PerformsThicker steel: At 2.5 mm, the pan is heavier gauge than Made In’s standard 2.0 mm carbon steel, so it holds more heat when a cold steak hits the surface.Broad, flat floor: The wide cooking surface gives room to sear without crowding, and the tapered walls make flipping and basting easy.Solid brass handle: The long, riveted handle reaches to the back of a hot oven, and the brass darkens with age along with the pan.Pre-seasoned: The pan arrives seasoned and ready to cook, and the surface becomes slicker each time it is used and oiled.
What It Does BestSteaks, chops, and burgers with a deep crustScallops and fish with crisp skinSearing on the stove and finishing in the ovenPan sauces made from the fond

Made In 12.6-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Pizza Steel
The Made In Seasoned Carbon Steel Pizza Steel is for home pizza makers chasing a browned, crisp bottom crust from an ordinary oven. The round carbon steel plate preheats with the oven, and its 86 perforations let moisture escape from under the dough, so the base bakes crisp instead of soft. It works on the grill too, for pizza nights outdoors.
Why It PerformsPerforated for crisp crust: The holes let steam escape from under the dough and expose the crust to direct heat, which is what browns the bottom.Carbon steel for high heat: Carbon steel handles a fully preheated oven or a hot grill, the temperatures thin, blistered pizza needs.Lighter than cast iron: Made In rates its carbon steel at about half the weight of cast iron, so the steel is easy to slide in and out of the oven.Pre-seasoned release: The factory seasoning helps dough release cleanly and grows slicker with use.

Made In Professional Carbon Steel Griddle
The Made In Carbon Steel Griddle turns two burners into one long, flat cooking surface. It fits across the front and back burners of a standard range, so one end can run hot for searing smash burgers while the other stays gentle for eggs or toasting buns. Take it outside and it works the same way on a grill or over an open fire.
Why It Performs4 mm carbon steel: The heavy plate holds its temperature when a batch of cold patties or pancake batter goes on, so the first and last pieces brown alike.Two heat zones: Spanning two burners lets you sear on one side and finish or hold food warm on the other.Raised, welded handles: The hand-welded handles stand up off the surface, leaving room for oven mitts when lifting the griddle from the grill or oven.Seasoning that builds: The griddle arrives seasoned, and the surface grows darker and slicker with every cook.

Made In 12-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Grill Basket
The Made In Seasoned Carbon Steel Grill Basket keeps small and sliced foods on the grill and out of the fire.

Two loop handles make it easy to set the basket on a gas grill, a charcoal kettle, or a campfire grate, then lift it off full with both hands.
Why It PerformsPerforated floor: Dime-sized holes let direct flame and smoke reach the food, so vegetables char and shrimp pick up grill flavor instead of steaming.Two loop handles: Short handles on opposite sides take up less room on the grate than a long handle and give a secure two-handed grip when the basket is full and hot.Sloped walls: Food stays in the basket when you shake it, and the walls make it easy to push ingredients from a hot zone to a cooler one.Built for fire: Pre-seasoned 2 mm carbon steel takes the direct heat of a grill or open fire with no coating to protect, and the seasoning darkens and grows slicker with use.

Made In 8-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan
The Made In 8-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan is the small, quick-heating pan for cooking one portion well. It brings the searing ability and heat retention of carbon steel to tasks a larger pan handles poorly: a single egg, a handful of scallops, a pan of toasted nuts or whole spices. At this size, carbon steel comes up to temperature quickly on any burner, and the pan is light enough to swirl, toss, and pour from one hand. It also packs easily for the grill or a camping trip.
Why It PerformsSeasoned at the factory: Made In applies the first two coats of seasoning, a blend of shea nut oil and coconut oil, before the pan ships. Those coats are the most difficult to build at home, so the pan cooks well from its first use and develops a darker, slicker patina over time.Stamped from one disc of steel: The body is a single piece of stamped carbon steel, with no coating to chip or wear away. Made In rates it at roughly half the weight of cast iron, which at this size makes one-handed tossing and pouring easy.Concentrated heat: A small floor over a standard burner heats evenly and quickly, which suits short, hot tasks such as blistering peppers or searing a single portion of fish.Sloped walls: The flared sides make it easy to toss food, baste with butter, and slide an egg onto a plate.Hollow Stay Cool Handle: The hollow handle slows the transfer of heat and remains comfortable to grip during stovetop cooking.
What It Does BestFried eggs and omelets for one, once the seasoning has maturedToasting nuts, seeds, and whole spicesSearing scallops, a small fish fillet, or a single chopBlistering shishito peppers and charring small vegetablesCooking over a camp stove, grill, or campfire
Choosing the Right Made In PanFor two portions, the Made In 10-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan is the everyday size; the Made In 12-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan handles family-size batches. Cooks who want eggs to release from the first day, without building seasoning, should compare the Made In 8-inch ProCoat Non-Stick Fry Pan or the Made In 8-inch CeramiClad Non-Stick Frying Pan. Learn More$99.00 -
Made In 10-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan
The Made In Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan is built for cooks who want a hard sear, a crisp crust, and a pan that improves with every use. Carbon steel holds heat the way cast iron does but responds to changes at the burner far more quickly, which is why it has long been a fixture in French and restaurant kitchens. The 10-inch size cooks chicken breasts for two, a pair of chops, or a skillet of potatoes without crowding, then moves from the stovetop into the oven, onto the grill, or over a campfire.
Why It PerformsFactory seasoning: Made In applies the first two coats of seasoning, a blend of shea nut oil and coconut oil, before the pan ships. Those first coats are the most difficult to build at home, so the surface releases food from the first cook and darkens toward a slick, natural nonstick patina with continued use.Stamped from a single disc of steel: Each pan is stamped from one thin carbon steel disc with no coating to chip or wear away. Made In rates it at roughly half the weight of cast iron, so tossing vegetables or lifting the pan one-handed is practical, yet it is rugged enough for a grill grate or open flame.Sloped walls and a wide floor: The flared profile maximizes contact between the pan and the heat for high-heat searing, and makes it easy to toss food or slide it onto a plate.No coating to protect: Without a synthetic or ceramic layer, the pan tolerates the highest burner settings, broiler heat, and direct flame that would damage a nonstick surface.Hollow Stay Cool Handle: The hollow handle slows the transfer of heat, so it remains comfortable to grip during stovetop cooking.
What It Does BestSearing steaks, chops, and scallops to a deep, even crustPan-roasting chicken thighs, starting on the burner and finishing in the ovenCharring peppers, onions, and other vegetables on an outdoor grillCrisping potatoes, hash, and fried riceFrying eggs and cooking delicate fish once the seasoning has matured
Choosing the Right Made In PanThe 10-inch pan sits between the Made In 8-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan, sized for single portions, and the Made In 12-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan, the better choice for family-size batches. Carbon steel rewards a little routine care; cooks who want effortless release with no seasoning to maintain should consider the Made In 10-inch ProCoat Non-Stick Fry Pan or the Made In 10-inch CeramiClad Non-Stick Frying Pan. For wine reductions, tomato sauces, and other acidic dishes that can strip seasoning, the Made In 10-inch Stainless Clad Frying Pan is the better tool. Learn More
