Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 I believe it but I've never seen then in the cooking store, garage sales or thrify shops. I wonder if they didn't catch on out this way. Donna --- Marilyn Daub <mcdaub wrote: > They make a cast iron set of pots with wooden > handles. They cannot go into > the oven!!!

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 A lot of people bought them because they were cheap, but they sure didn't catch on as they turned on the handle because the handles came loose and they were dangerous!!

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Make sure that the handles are tight. When they come loose, the pots are dangerous. They turn when you pick them up.

While looking for pans with wooden handles, I came across this website.

I know this first hand. Always tighten any handles that get loose, on your pots and pans!! As for the wooden handles on cast iron. I have not had those, but did know someone who did, and she *did* bake with hers, the handle was rather brown on one side, and so I asked her about it. Apparently she never had problems with it catching fire (just getting toasty. lol). But I would be *very* careful, and watch it cautiously, if ever trying to bake with one of those--- she thought it was no big deal. Hmmm, maybe one could remove the handle and just use a pot holder on the rim, when baking with those? Thia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 The wood is burning out when in the oven. It would be dangerous, in my opinion. I just wouldn't buy any of them.
