Grilled Steak Fajitas
Bold, flame-kissed and endlessly customizable. Toss marinated steak, peppers and onions into your cast iron grill pan, then serve it all sizzling with warm tortillas and a squeeze of lime.
Chargrilled Shucked Oysters
Start your evening with a little theater and a lot of flavor—a touch of brine, a hint of heat. Nestle freshly shucked oysters into your cast iron skillet, top with herbed butter, and let the flames work their magic.
Grilled Peach and Ricotta Crostini
Proof that simple is stunning. Halved peaches caramelize beautifully on cast iron, especially when paired with creamy ricotta and grilled baguette slices. Finish with a drizzle of honey and flaky sea salt.
Skillet Cornbread
Golden on the outside, tender on the inside—cast iron was made for cornbread. This rustic classic turns into a centerpiece when baked in your Alpine Collection skillet.
Cast Iron Skillet Chicken with Fingerling Potatoes
Hearty, homey and made for sharing. Sear bone-in chicken thighs until crispy, then roast alongside fingerlings and garlic for a one-pan dinner you’ll come back to all summer.

Pork Carnitas with Pickled Red Onions
Slow-cooked, fork-tender pork gets a final crisp in a hot cast iron skillet. Pile onto tortillas with quick-pickled onions and fresh cilantro for a taco night to remember. Cook once, eat twice: these make amazing leftovers.
The Fry Up
Start your morning like a true outdoorsperson, with a full fry-up. Think eggs, sausage, mushrooms and tomatoes all sizzling in one glorious skillet. Best enjoyed with a strong cup of coffee and a stunning view.
