More French than the Three Musketeers, the De Buyer Mineral iron grill panit is perfect for home cooking and healthy meals with little fat. Just what you're looking for. This pan is exactly like the popular Mineral B pan from the brand, but with stripes on the base, so you can grill meat and vegetables with that touch of caramelization or Maillard reaction we look for in a perfect roast.
Why is this grill pan ideal as a griddle?
Iron gets hotter than other materials, so besides having the griddle ready quickly, it allows you to sear food super fast, achieving a seared piece of meat that retains all the juice inside. In addition, the hot air that passes underneath the food, thanks to the grooves on the base, helps with that much-desired Maillard caramelization effect, and you also get those typical grill marks that give the dish a perfect finish. An ideal grill pan!
About the Mineral B De Buyer pans
- Handcrafted in iron.
- Without using chemicals or strange coatings or heavy metals,
- They are treated with a natural beeswax layer that protects the pan from the factory until it reaches your home.
- With use, they develop a patina that makes them naturally non-stick.
- Ideal both for browning or roasting meats and for sautéing vegetables or frying eggs.
- Suitable for all heat sources including induction.
- They can be put in the oven (can go in the oven at 200 ºC for ten minutes).
This is the classic pan, the grandmother's iron pan, which allows you to recover those authentic and delicious flavors. It’s a pan worth its weight in gold, and it will last you a lifetime at home! Imagine a good piece of meat or some vegetables on the grill made in this grill pan -yes, the meat and vegetables of your dreams!
Remember we have a protective handle cover for De Buyer iron pans, which will help you avoid burns when handling the pan.
Why we like the Mineral B iron grill pan
- Mineral iron distributes heat so well on the entire surface of the pan so the food browns evenly, and with those characteristic grill marks that give it a very professional look.
- Being oven-safe, it’s perfect for gratinating or giving a quick heat boost to your recipes.
- This grill pan will last you a lifetime if you take good care of it. Just like you know how.
Important things to know about Mineral B iron pans
- De Buyer pans are made in France, and the only ones with a certificate of iron purity over 99%. The best!
- They are iron pans, so they can rust. How to avoid it? Avoid prolonged contact with water, don’t let them air dry: simply dry them with a cloth after washing. If you want, you can leave them on low heat for a few minutes to completely lose moisture while you finish cooking (a very easy and useful trick).
- If you’re going to leave them unused for many days, you can apply a little oil and spread it over the surface with a paper towel, but it’s not essential at all.
- Before first use, it’s very useful to season them. This seasoning makes them naturally more non-stick. Seasoning is super simple to do. Watch the video among the photos to learn how.
- You have a pan for life! You can scrub it with a soft sponge, or wash it with steel wool if needed to remove stuck food, it won’t harm the pan! (there’s no non-stick coating to damage). They can turn black, evenly or in patches. Don’t worry, the blacker they get, the better they perform.
- If rust spots appear, wipe with a paper towel and oil, and you’ll see it disappear like magic. If the rusted area is bigger, use steel wool without fear. Nothing will happen; it’s a completely iron pan: under the iron layer, there’s more iron.
- If you’ve had to scrub it with steel wool or just feel like it, you can season it again, but it’s not at all necessary to do it regularly.
