(Using my 900 number voice) Are you ready for some hot skillet on skillet action?

Using a panini maker to make a panini is for wusses. Skillet on skillet action is where it’s at.   Use an antique Le Creuset cast iron skillet for the bottom (oh yeah) then double it up with two heavier iron skillets on top (awwww yeah, give it to ‘em Eric)  then flatten a fantastic sandwich and eat it up (OH GEEZ, SOMEONE GET ME A TOWEL…..AND A SANDWICH!!!)

Seattle Skillet Sensation Club

I’ve created a sort of underground Seattle club where lovers of skillets can create amazing meals in one magical piece of iron.  So far, I only have one member (click) but I know there are more of you out there.  I know the club says “Seattle” but I know you all want to live here so I’m keeping the name the same.  You can say, “Yeah, I’m part of a club in Seattle.”  “What club?” “ummm, I can’t really explain it.”  At that point your friends will probably think you’re mysterious or just a huge pervert…..either way, welcome to the Seattle Skillet Sensation Club! We don’t take crap from anyone and if you act up too much we’ll chase you with our skillets…..well, once we finish eating.

(Wow, what an introduction!!! FIRST CLASS BABY!!)

Want to join?  Grab a skillet, cook something in it, take a picture, send it to me and I’ll post it! It’s that easy!

What you see above is my latest skillet sensation creation.
