De Buyer Pans

Hello All,

About to buy my first set of pans and I'm looking to add a Carbon Steel frypan to my list

De Buyer pans seem like a good choice and easy to find in Toronto, Canada, does anyone have one or know a better brand to look into??

Thank you in advance,

Gil

Darto seems to be well regarded among this crew.

As @Matthew Snyder a few of us have the Darto and many of us like them.DeBuyer I believe may have a greater range of pans so would be worth looking into. FWIW I'll be visiting TO in late May and can probably fit a pan or two in my luggage if that helps.

@Todd_Shewman_38102 Thx for the offer, besides the website, is there anywhere else i can get Darto??

I have the larger version (12 3/4 inch) of the winner of this below. As I must live on a budget, I can't really justify the better part of $300 for a pan and shipping when I can get a pan that beat all but a very expensive hand made pan for less than $50 including shipping. I'd rather spend the extra $$ on foie gras and truffles...

Thx for the offer, besides the website, is there anywhere else i can get Darto?? And would you think it's worth $150 for the No 23 and 27??

Not to the best of my knowledge.

You think it's worth 150 CDN?

I am a DARTO fan.......AND if you screw up the seasoning with something acidic they respond well to oven cleaner and re-seasoning .... happens when you have to much wine..

I'm not aware of any other places to buy them. I'm assuming the $150 is Cdn? I'm getting almost that to ship here ($146 cdn). It's ~116USD and the cost of the pans themselves are worth it, it's the shipping that kills you/me. Shipping goes down per unit if you have more that might be interested (FWIW)

I wish but oh well

This is my De Buyer carbon steel fry pan, it has its pros and cons. It seasons up beautifully and gives me the the best sear over my Staub and lodge cast iron. I highly recommend this pan for home use, but can be tricky on a high volume line, they are very heavy and if they get too hot, it takes a while to cool down.

It's for home use so thx for letting me know
