Polish vs SIGNATUREsoft finish

Polished cast iron skillets have a vintage cast iron nostalgic charm, with their smooth and easy-to-use surface. However, we have found that traditional polished finishes can have some drawbacks. Seasoning doesn't stick as well to polished skillets, which can result in shadows, scratchy patinas, and even flaking when not taken care of properly.


After years of testing in our labs, we developed our own unique finish: the Victoria SIGNATUREsoft finish. This finish is achieved by using a CNC machine to smooth the inside of the skillet, and then sand blasting it to give it a slight texture. This texture allows for more forgiving heat tolerances and better seasoning retention, while still passing the egg and corn bread test as well as a polished skillet.


So which finish is best for you? It really depends on your personal preferences. If you want to build seasoning quickly and don't want to be too precise with heat, we recommend the SIGNATUREsoft finish. If you prefer the polished look and feel, go for the polished finish. Either way, you can trust in the quality and durability of Victoria skillets.

the proof is in the iron

"I've been using the 12in skillet and it's quickly become my favorite. The design is really balanced and versatile, and the soft finish is my favorite feature. It's the best seasoned cast iron skillet and so easy to maintain."

"I am thoroughly impressed by its heat retention and the exceptional initial non-stick surface provided by the triple layer of flaxseed oil seasoning. The well-thought-out design, particularly the neck vent for cooler handling, makes it a true pleasure to cook with, showcasing the perfect blend of nostalgia and technology. "

"I recently started using this cast iron cookware, and let me tell you—it's a total game changer! I absolutely love that the pan strikes the perfect balance between the benefits of cast iron's heat retention and a lighter, more convenient design. Plus, the cool-to-touch handle keeps things safe and fun. You've gotta get your hands on one of these!"

Beef Stroganoff

Beef Stroganoff

Beef Stroganoff is a comforting classic that promises rich flavors and tender beef. Begin by thinly slicing 1 1/2-2 pounds of flank steak and seasoning it generously with salt and black pepper. In a small bowl, combine 2 cups of beef stock, worcestershire sauce, cornstarch, and tomato paste, setting the mixture aside. Sear the beef in a large cast iron skillet with butter until browned on both sides, then set aside. In the same skillet, cook diced onions, thinly sliced mushrooms, and minced garlic until softened. Add the beef broth mixture to the skillet, season, and simmer until thickened. Stir in sour cream and the seared beef, simmering for additional flavor melding. Garnish with fresh parsley and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve this hearty dish over egg noodles or mashed potatoes for a satisfying meal.

Strip Steak with White Bean Ragout

Strip Steak with White Bean Ragout

Strip Steak with White Bean Ragout offers a savory dish perfect for any occasion. Begin by allowing your steaks to reach room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling. Pat dry with paper towels and season generously with sea salt, black pepper, and seasoned salt. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium to medium-high heat and add butter and olive oil. Sear the seasoned steaks for 5-6 minutes on each side until cooked to your desired doneness. Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a cutting board and cover lightly with foil. In the same skillet, add butter, cannellini beans with the liquid, sliced mushrooms, minced garlic, shallot, rosemary, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for 5 minutes, then stir in grated parmesan. Adjust seasoning if needed. Slice the rested steak and serve with the flavorful white bean ragout for a delicious meal.
Strawberry Cobbler with Vanilla Cream Biscuits

Strawberry Cobbler with Vanilla Cream Biscuits

Strawberry Cobbler with Vanilla Cream Biscuits presents a delightful dessert with a harmonious blend of sweet strawberries and tender biscuits. Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees and greasing a 10” or 11” cast iron skillet. For the biscuits, combine cake flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and granulated sugar, then cut in cold, shredded butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cold buttermilk and shape the dough into a square, layering with thin slices of cream cheese before cutting into biscuits and freezing. Meanwhile, toss halved strawberries with granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and salt, then spread in the skillet. Arrange the chilled biscuits over the strawberries, brush with buttermilk, and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown. Garnish with ice cream or whipped cream and savor the delightful flavors.
