Victoria 10.5-Inch Cast Iron Comal Griddle Pan with a Long Handle, Preseasoned with Flaxseed Oil, Made in Colombia

I love this pan! The 10.5" cast iron griddle pan is perfect for two. 1. Always heat up the pan and WAIT before cooking on it. 2. Pour about 1 tsp. of grape seed oil over it, then bring the heat down to MEDIUM before cooking anything on it. Warning: Don't plan on cooking anything on high heat or you'll get bad results. Result: My calm technique has yielded perfectly fried eggs, roasted chili peppers, and wonderfully baked tortillas due to the cast iron's remarkable sustained heat!. 3. To clean: brush away any oily remnants in warm soapy water then dry immediately with a soft cloth, and, if you like, rub a drop of oil on pan's surface with a paper towel. Final note: this cast-iron pan with low sides is good for pizza and fits inside my large Breville oven. Reasonably priced and will serve you many happy cooking and eating times.

In general, I am a fan of Victoria cast iron, as I think they are an excellent value and well made. This comal (10.5" version) is no exception. It does come pre-seasoned right out of the box, so you can wipe it down and start using it. Mine arrived in perfect condition, with a smooth, flat surface and decent seasoning. It's a nice looking pan. And yes, it's heavy. As with most cast iron, it takes a few minutes to come up to cooking temperature. It heats evenly and holds the heat very well. So far I've used it to char tomatillos, peppers, tomatoes and onions, as well as making a bunch of tortillas. Once up to temperature, it's perfectly non stick. The size is perfect for me - not too big and clumsy, but big enough to cook what I need without getting another pan on the stove. It fits on the largest burner on my stove as if it was made to go there. Cleanup is super easy. Be sure to dry it thoroughly and/or heat it back up for a bit on the stove to be sure it's completely dry. Overall, I think this is a great piece of cookware, and is quickly becoming one of my favorite pans.

Cleaned and seasoned it after it arrived. It appears smoother than current Lodge cast iron but it’s not a smooth surface. That’s not a bad thing. It takes seasoning well and is non-stick after a few uses. Used almost daily and definitely keeps getting better . Cleans up usually with just a paper towel and is ready to use again. Just in case you don’t know it’s not dishwasher safe and will rust without proper care. Just like all cast iron cookware as well as carbon steel cookware. Get aluminum or stainless steel if you don’t want a chance of rust forming in or on the cookware.

I have an induction stove so I wanted a griddle to make quesadillas on. This was the smallest griddle I could find so I took a chance. I'm in my 70's and this is just way to heavy to pop out evry time i want to heat up something quickly. The griddle is Very thick and heavy. It would take a lot of time and energy to heat up as well as a long time to cool off. If you want to cook on a campfire or make a pizza this would be perfect. I gave it 4 stars because it didnt work for me but it's top quality.

I bought this largely for crepes, and it worked perfectly. I've used the Lodge version before, and I agonized over whether to purchase Lodge or Victoria griddle. I ended up going with Victoria largely due to the longer handles. Although I was worried about the rim not being as prominent as the Lodge, I actually found it easier to spread the crepe batter around with the Victoria. It is also a versatile pan for other pancakes, tortillas, grilled cheese, fried eggs, etc. I think this may even end up being my most used pan, and think everyone should have one, alongside the more common skillets. I am slightly concerned about flaxseed being used for pre-seasoning, considering it is a ill-advised fad and is prone to flaking. Vegetable oil is by and large the tried and true seasoning oil, and health concerns are vastly dramatized, ESPECIALLY when it is used for seasoning when only a very marginal amount will be consumed. I decided not to strip the seasoning out of curiosity, and will update the review if I experience any flaking. So far, the pre-seasoning was impressively nonstick, and feels nearly perfect now with just two sessions of at-home oven seasoning.

Great cast iron Pan. Use it to make tortillas and crepes. Been great.

Love it! I have been looking for a good one and I have found it. It was a great price and we use it all the time. The heat distribution is great.

Love this comal! I appreciate that it came pre-seasoned, but I've owned and used cast iron for many years so I normally season my own way as well. I washed and dried the griddle first, then lightly rubbed it with avocado oil and baked it upside-down for just over an hour at 450 degrees, left it to cool in the oven overnight and then seasoned it again and left it in the oven to cool. Today was the first time I used it, cooking eggs over medium for breakfast. I brushed a little avocado oil in the pan, heated to cooking temp, and then added the eggs. The eggs cooked beautifully, and only the very slightest bit of sticking, but I realized I was using the wrong spatula for cast iron and switched to a griddle spatula. I have a glass-top electric stove -- this griddle heats very uniformly and has plenty of cooking surface!

Good quality and perfect size to my need. I am liking it.
