Beli Staub Cast Iron Plancha

The weight of this cast iron is no joke, but it holds heat so evenly that my bacon and eggs finish at the same time across both burners. The 18 by 9.5 surface fits a full pound of bacon without crowding. Cleaning takes a little scrubbing, but that's cast iron for you.

Cooked pancakes for four on this double-burner griddle and they all fit at once without crowding. The cast iron holds heat evenly enough that the first batch was just as golden as the last. Cleanup was quick with just hot water and a stiff brush.

The surface is massive—I can cook a full batch of pancakes and six strips of bacon without anything overlapping. It heats evenly across both burners, and cleanup is just a quick wipe since it's preseasoned. A solid workhorse for weekend breakfasts.
