This isn't my first time using cast iron, but Emba's products are something else. Made in the UK, they come pre-seasoned so usable straight away and are of great quality. Moreover, I love that they can be used on any heat surface, so we've been using them in doors for pancakes and other, and planning to use them on the BBQ as well. The reversible griddle is my fave. Smash burgers next =) Highly recommended.
