I was in the market for a new skillet and from prior discussions here, I had decided that the uber lightweight non-stick skillet that came/went with my Bugaboo cook set needed to be replaced with something more substantial.

Weight is always a consideration for most of us, but regardless of if you cook on just a stove or fire or both, a skillet has to be able to take the heat, be reasonably light, and well made.

I believe I found a good contender.
I bought this 8" non-stick skillet at Sam's Club.
It's commercial grade aluminum with a non-stick interior. Handle is riveted on (3) and a removable silicone handle cover.

It's not listed on line, but they sell them in the clubs in the area for other kitchen items.
They come in 8" ( big enough for solo/tandem) 10" and 12".

The bottom says: Bakers & Chefs.
My 8" was around $15.
And if like me you try and buy American, it's made here in the USA.

They also have a nice looking 3 ply stainless skillet but that's a little more.

Non-stick skillets need to be kept at a reasonable temp, but unless your the kind of person that's looking to "blacken" your fish, I think it would serve most peoples needs at a reasonable price/weight.

Not bad. I like the GSI version I got years ago at   (You need to Login or Register but in general, I've lost faith in kits and prefer adding or changing individual pieces and adjusting for the trip. Ditto coking utensils.

I'm with you Bill I think I have the same pan (Folding handle?) and I am not so keen on "kits". On the other side of the coin a guy certainly couldn't go wrong with ST's suggestion and at 1/2 the price for the same results.

First thing that happened to my gsi 10" is it warped in the middle. I still use it though.

I'm guessing Ben that you used it on fire and mine has only been on a Dragonfly. Were I a fire cooker, I'd go the goodwill and other thrift stores route for pots and pans - or use my big deep square cast aluminum fry pan. BTW my pot is 3 at hard anodized aluminum I got from Bakepacker. Together, all I need for cooking, usually for two but once solo and once for four.
