TABLE: Cast-Iron Skillet
Real Southern cooking starts in a cast-iron skillet, a vessel that retains even heat whether you’re baking cornbread, braising quail, or frying chicken. And the finest ones are made by the oldest cookware foundry in the country, Lodge Cast Iron, in the mountains of Tennessee. The company’s Logic line is preseasoned to create a glossy heirloom patina right out of the box. As long as you remember to never, ever wash it with soap, the skillet will last a lifetime—and then some. $34; lodgemfg.com
