Appalachian Cast Iron

2023-08-15 Cookware Home Goods

Our cast iron pans see a lot of use. Everything from cooking a grilled cheese to reverse searing a great steak.

One cast iron item we do not yet have is a waffle iron. However, now that we have found Appalachian Cast Iron we can correct that.

A fascination with antique waffle irons led to the creation of Appalachian Cast Iron.

For the past 30 years I have been fascinated by antique waffle irons and have collected many. After cooking with my very first one, I immediately reached into my cabinet, pulled out my electric waffle iron, and dropped it into the trash bin. It was only a few years old and already had damage to the non-stick coating and I knew the plastic legs weren’t going to last either. However, now I had a real, permanent, cast iron waffle maker, a 160 year old North, Hamilton and Chase. There was no turning back.

Out of this was born the Great American Waffle Iron.

The Great American Waffle Iron is in many ways functional artwork that makes a great waffle. With this piece we pay tribute to the thousands of American foundry workers that helped build our nation.

And, as usual with quality American produced products, Appalachian Cast Iron includes a fantastic warranty on their cast iron products:

Our cast iron products are warranted, period. If there is ever a defect in craftsmanship, or material failure from normal wear and tear, we will opt to replace it with like kind and quality or refund the purchase price to the original owner or one traced descendant.
