2. Don’t Try to Fix It
Welding or gluing cast iron is difficult and usually not food-safe. Even if repaired, the skillet won’t have the same strength or heat distribution as an intact one.
3. Consider a Different Brand
If the skillet broke easily, it may indicate poor quality. Look for well-known brands like Lodge, Smithey, or Finex, which are known for durability and high-quality casting.
4. Prevent Future Breakage
Inspect before buying: Check for hairline cracks or defects.
Handle with care: While cast iron is tough, it can still break if dropped.
Invest in a reputable brand: A well-made skillet is worth it for long-term use.
Final Thoughts
A broken handle on a brand-new cast iron skillet is frustrating, but it’s likely a defect rather than normal wear and tear. Your best bet is to contact the manufacturer for a replacement and invest in a high-quality brand to ensure you get a skillet that lasts a lifetime.
