Blogerversary/Valentines giveaway #5- Xtrema Cookware ends feb 14

As a family of 8 we don't eat out very often. One reason being its soo expensive and another it is hard to get healthy food and find food my youngest can eat. I prepare meals at home everyday which means alot of cooking and alot of wear and tear on my pots and pans. I got my pots and pans 7 years ago and they are garbage. That's what I get for buying a cheap set on clearance haha. I have been searching all over for good heavy duty pots and pan sets that will last a lifetime and honestly I haven't found much especially with my budget. So when Xtrema Cookware let me test out one of their 10" skillets I couldn't wait to see how they would work.

So when I received it I used it almost immediately. I have actually used it quite alot since receiving it. I have made Cheese steaks with melted cheese and cream cheese in it and it didn't stick and cleaned up easily. I made fried corn battered fish in it with just a little bit of oil and it didn't stick. It cook the fish evenly and to a perfect golden crust. The pan was still easily cleaned with just soap and sponge. I made corn bread in it in the oven. I sprayed lightly with butter spray and that's it and the cornbread came out perfect. It didn't stick and the corn bread was golden all the way through. The best part was I didn't even have to soak the pan for a hour like my other pans when I make cornbread to clean it. I just cleaned it up with the scrubby part of the sponge , some soap and water and done that easy.

The only downfall or could be a good thing is this pan is pretty heavy compared to most pans. I would say it is about the same heaviness as a cast iron pan. This pan has went far beyond my expectations. I love that it is scratch resistant, non stick and is so versatile. I love that it can go on the stove, in the oven and in the microwave. It truly is a all in one pan. Now I just need a few more to complete my cookware and throw my old ones away for good. I anticipate this pan lasting my lifetime easily. It is a wonderful pan!
