Plus, they’re the ideal size for 6” tortillas for quick quesadillas.
If you’re a one-chef band, 8” frypans are great for reheating leftovers, or searing a fillet of fish, steak, or chicken. These pans are also amazing because they take up less space and comfortably fit in any size dishwasher. 8” frypans are extremely lightweight and easy to maneuver, almost like using a plate to fry all your favorite small dishes.
10” Frypans

From sauteing vegetables and steaming broccoli to fluffy scrambled eggs, your 10” frypan is bound to become your side-dish superstar! But don’t worry, their versatile size also makes them perfect for mastering main courses like juicy burgers, tasty omelets, or perfectly seared steaks.
Cooking for you and a significant other? Grab your 10” frypan and whip up an incredible dish with no worry. They can fit either a large steak, a few chicken breasts, a deep-dish pizza, two servings of stir-fry—the list truly goes on and on.
12” Frypans
No matter what you’re cooking, or how many you’re cooking for, 12” frypans have the space to get everything done—all in the same pan. Pan-frying, stir-frying, sauteing, oh my! These pans are built to do it all, making them a vital part in any routine. Think flavorful stir-fries, picture-perfect pastas, mouthwatering enchiladas, and so much more. If you’ve ever heard the term “don’t crowd the pan,” 12” frypans give you enough room for your ingredients to stay separate while they cook. Plus, since you can cook everything all in one place, cleaning up becomes quicker and stress-free.
