A 20 cm Petromax cast iron skillet with a long handle, to cook over coals without twin grips. The small format is ideal for kamado desserts, sauces, eggs or single portions — hot iron in and out of the kamado with one hand.
When you don't need the full FP35, the handled FP20 is the pocket cast iron skillet: kamado cobblers and crumbles, a pan-roasted sauce, fire eggs or a single portion of garlic prawns. The long handle lets you work it one-handed over the coals. The same Petromax fire iron, in tapas size. Pre-seasoned and ready to use.
The small handled cast iron pan: kamado desserts, sauces and single portions one-handed. The same Petromax fire iron, pocket-sized.

Who it's for

FAQ
What is the 20 cm FP20 skillet with handle ideal for?
Its compact 20 cm size and long handle make it perfect for individual servings: a fried egg, a side, searing a small steak or serving straight to the table. The handle lets you work it one-handed over the kamado or stove. For group dishes, the 35 cm FP35 with handles covers more.
Does the handle get very hot on the kamado?
Yes, it is one-piece cast iron, so the handle reaches the same temperature as the pan. Always handle it with a heat-resistant glove like the Rapicca or with a holder; do not grab it with a thin cloth. That is the trade-off of solid cast iron sturdiness.
Can I put it in the oven or only on the grill?
Being all cast iron, with no plastic parts, it is perfect in the oven, on the kamado, gas burner, ceramic hob and induction. You can start a sear on the kamado and finish in the oven without changing pans. That total versatility is the great strength of Petromax cast iron.
