Reading way too much about the toxicity of Teflon coated cookware. What are some good brands, materials as substitutes?

I like all stainless steel. As long as it's hot stuff really doesn't stick.
A lot of people don't heat their skillets first.

Hit up some flea markets and buy some good, quality old cast iron. You don't have to buy Griswold or even collector pieces. Birmingham Stove and Range (BSR) works great. Or, if you don't want to clean and season yourself you can find them at antique shops or on Ebay ready to go. We cook most everything in old cast iron or stainless steel.

I have a bunch of cast iron and also carbon steel lodge pans. They are really good.
I just bought some cheap bayou classic cast iron pans and used a grinder with a sanding pad to smooth the cooking surface. They cook great.
Don’t over think it.

I bought a Greenpan after doing some research. It’s not Teflon but it’s pretty good.

I have all All-Clad cookwear except for one extra large commercial-grade nonstick skillet. I pretty much only do omelets in that one though or other lower temperature cooking. If you learn how to cook with stainless, cast iron, or carbon steel then you really don't need anything non-stick.

Yeah, non-stick is training wheels.

some insufferable food nerd was commenting on one of Jacques Pepin's PBS cooking shows, in which Jacques had cooked scrambled eggs in a nonstick pan and stirred them with a fork.

The offended poster worried out loud that the metal fork would be desctructive to the nonstick pan's surface.

You know what? If Jacques Pepin tells you this is how you make a fricking egg? The matter is settled, frick nuts.

There's so much other shite to be concerned with, the egg pan you use a few times a week is not worth the effort. Just recycle the $12 pan every year and stop worrying

A lot of people love stainless but this is a huge pain in the butt for whipping up a quick breakfast or whatever.
I’m a huge fan of the cheap blue diamond stuff at Walmart. They don’t stay like new forever but they’re cheap enough to replace every couple hundred uses.

Cast iron and…
Hex Clad. I’ve had my skillet for almost 4 years and there’s no drop in performance when cooking fried eggs that don’t stick. I use the same skillet to cook/crisp chicken. [chefskiss]

Tin-lined copper, carbon steel, cast iron. All behave quite differently but all will be relatively non-stick without the chemical garbage.

Lexi Home pots and pans. Diamond pattern and are awesome and remain that way if you are careful.

The food/drink board has some good threads on this. For me I use the procoat or stainless steel pans from made-in made in
Check often because they have some really good specials through the holidays. I was able to get a 13-piece set for about $400 a few years ago.

Take a look at Heritage Steel. Their EATER line of stainless steel cookware is good stuff. You can score some good deals on clearance and seconds.

When people say they have stainless steel from Made-in, do they mean stainless clad?

i bought this All-Clad nonstick set and its been amazing so far. Zero complaints, zero scuffs (use only a plastic spatula)
