Always wanted one of these, so I picked up this Lodge 10.5 inch Cast Iron Grill Pan set from Costco for $19.99. It comes with a silicone handle holder and a black grill pan scraper. Not a bad deal! I hope to use it on my new Weber grill for times when I don't want to grill directly on the grill grate. Obviously, the silicone handle holder must be removed before putting on the grill!
Here are the first burgers using the grill pan. Nice grill marks!
One side note... I'm not thrilled with the silicone handle holder. When the handle is hot and you use it to lift the pan, it tends to want to slide off the handle due to the weight of the pan. That's not good when you have a hot pan and can't grab the pan to prevent it falling without an accidental burn! I much prefer the standard cloth handle holders to the silicone! Be sure to use a cloth handle holder and wear an oven mitt on the other hand when transporting a hot grill pan! Using the silicone handle holder is only good if you are not going to lift the pan while it is hot.
