I got a cheap ceramic coated skillet at Wally World. Using it 6 months or more now and still looks like new. Works much better than Teflon.I like the convenience of no-stick pans but I don't like the short lifespan of Teflon. I read up on ceramic coatings and they don't seem to last any longer.
Then again, working with a SS fry pan can be a challenge, but I've only used it a few times so far and am still learning. Solid meats like beef, pork and things like bacon are easy, scrambled eggs require low heat and longer cooking times but work out OK.
I have one fried egg dish I make that involves frying cheese on the surface of the pan under the eggs and I have not been able to make that work at all so far. Fish is also tricky if you want to brown it a bit on the surface. The good thing is SS cleans up really easy even if it has a good layer of burnt on food stuck to it
Going to hang in for a while and try different things. If I find I just can't make some recipes I like I might buy a ceramic pan just for them and see how that goes. Until then I'll continue to enjoy the challenge of SS frying everything
I do only use teflon coated Kanthal though. No coil gunk buildup
I'm still waiting on the bacon...
Andria obviously had her reasons to go I don't know what they were and I don't have to she's a cluey girl and I'm sure she felt she had good reason. I didn't always agree with her views as she didn't agree with mine but I wish her the best and hope she finds somewhere she can be happy and enjoy.
Good to hear they work better than Teflon, but give it a bit more time on durability. My Teflon skillets typically lasted a good four to five years or so if used regularly.

Yup, good stuff dat!
Way back when I was into the martial arts I loved seeing the kids bonk themselves with NunchucksI really hate when that happens
Ya really can't beat a good ol' cast iron pan, after it's been seasoned for a couple years...
Scallops and bacon...oh my goodness....!

That's not a 'blunt instrument', that's a 'weapon of mass destruction'
I prefer weapons of mass distraction. Gives me time to slip away and vape in peace ...
And I miss AndriaD ...

Mrs Ryedan once 'cleaned' my little cast iron skillet 'properly'
Took me a few days to get it back into pretty good shape

Yup, once you figure out where to stash the bodies
Actually, I had the overly yappy gal on Ignore for a very long time, didn't notice her missing...
