Prior to possibly buying a sizable set of new cookware, I wanted to give the hybrid pan a try. As a lifelong user of cask iron, I'm researching quality cookware that is not as heavy - the miles on my body are increasing rapidly, especially my hands and wrists. Craving a juicy steak was my first use. Holly hell, it turned out perfect! I'm a med-rare leaning towards the red steak eater. It was fabulous - at least as juicy as one seared in a well-heated Grizwold without setting off the fire alarms at home or stressing my wrist. Secondly, another favorite is fried eggs, over-medium for breakfast. I was NOT disappointed in frying, texture, or the taste. Some non-stick pans for me leave a taste-texture combo that I dislike. The eggs were wonderful with crispy margins - again, perfect to my tastes. In short, I love my 11" hybrid pan!!! Well-done!
