Double skillet now available

[carol]

Can some of you experienced skillet users put up some recipes and cooking methods please.
I bought one last year but have only used it once not sure what to do with it.
I cooked a small joint of pork in it with stuffing...not advisable to put the stuffing in as that just ended up a sloppy mess with all the liquid, but the pork was Ok ��

Was it any different to just cooking in any pan? I've got an old one, hardly used it though I did successfully warm a French pizza thing in it, ie all the cheese on top was melted.

I don't really get what these can do that my frying pan with a lid can't. I know you can flip it over and supposedly cook a whole chicken - but I don't cook whole chickens, and why would I want to flip it over when I can just flip the food inside over?

People are raving about Ridge Monkeys too - but again I can't see any advantage.

Please can someone enlighten me?

I know what you mean Caz.

I do like the Ridge Monkeys though. Nice way of cooking in an open fire and keeping your food relatively clean.

Agree with Rob that the ridge monkey is a better way of cooking things on an open fire but I am also a fan of the pressure cooker but like you Caz in a van cooking for one person keep it simple.

I bought one these earlier this year and it's brilliant. Much more sturdy than the aluminium skillet which I also have but the nasty non-stick stuff comes off. These are ceramic coated which is very tough. We used it as an oven to cook Lidl flans etc. (it does not come with a glass lid but we use the one from our old skillet which fits perfectly).

That looks great. The only advantage of the old skillet for me is that the handles come off, making it easier to store. I only have a little camper. Otherwise I'd definitely go fo this.

We bought one of those in Lidl in Germany in 2011, it is still in use and as good as new, it was €5
