A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.
What do you guys use for handle covers for your cast iron skillets? I have a silicon handle I'm not crazy about (too big and floppy, I worry about the pan slipping), and I've managed to set fire to multiple cloth handles (those ones on Amazon, usually in red or black stripes, or a chili pepper design). Any other good options out there?

Towel or potholder

When I worked at a chain restaurant we just had these little mini potholder sleeves that went over the fajita skillets

Thanks for the replies. Those sleeves are what I use now.


My problem is that I tend to leave them on the pot. I'm not sure if its the screaming hot skillet or just the flames from my gas range snaking up the skillet sides, but they end up getting burnt/falling apart. I'm surprised no one else seems to have this same issue. I guess I'll just need to take the potholders off when I'm not moving the skillet.
