Sometimes. It's more non-stick than a new, pre-seasoned piece of cast iron, but if you decide to use it to fry an egg, you'll wanna use butter or oil or something similar.

Hello Kip,It says it comes pre-seasoned, and after using it the very first time, it appears that it is. However, I purchased a flat skillet from the same company (Lodge) and although that one said it was pre-seasoned I still had to season it more since my pancakes still stuck a little. So, you MAY have to season it a little more. But it is a great grill. I bought Lodge's silicone handles, too, as the handles do get hot.

Yes it must be seasoned prior to use. Go to the BeBuyer website and it has a video showing how to properly season the pan. Once properly seasoned it should be good to go for just about anything. I use it regularly for eggs, pancakes etc., my daughter uses hers regularly for crepes and both my daughters use them for pancakes.

No. It's cast iron, pre-seasoned with baked-on vegetable oil. Seasoned cast iron is a little more sticky than teflon, and it requires a little more care and maintanance, but it lasts forever (actually improving with age) and won't leech carcinogens into your food!

it does not need to be seasoned like a cast iron grill, I would however recommend burning in the grill for about 1 hr. (as high as possible) and then liberally apply oil (veg or olive) before cooking each time.

Yes. Cast Iron, nice and smooth and flat. This is a great machine: powerful and quiet.

Mine did. You have to follow the directions for seasoning it. I did mine 3 times. All iron skillets take time to become smoothe.

Not sure what oil is is seasoned with, I would compare it to buying a Lodge iron skillet that has been pre-seasoned. Definitely no Teflon of any other non stick. Had some heavy rains here in GA this summer and Had covered for a few weeks. Looks like it was starting to rust which I quickly re-seasoned and good to go. You can flip two of the quarters so all the grill marks are the same way by the way.

No, it is pre-seasoned cast iron and if properly seasoned does not need Teflon. I suggest that you look at the manufactures web site for instructions on seasoning.

You don't have to re-season, it is pre-seasoned and ready to use. It is specified in the product description.

It's new. Cast iron just has a different look. I LOVE my lodge pot. Makes best braised roasts and long cooking Moroccan dishes.

Hi, yes, its from cast iron. I cant remember the coating. I just remember once I got it, I washed it really well, then coated with olive oil and put it in the bbq to "bake" it a little. Then washed it again ( no soap this time), and began using. It is nice wok, I still have it, and use it.

Yes it is. But you should still season the pans before use. I am very happy with them.

i find it stickier than older cast iron i had. but it is pre-seasoned. I just seem to need a lot more oil on it than I expected.
