Pappy & Company is committed to moments of everyday luxury. A favorite mug for your morning coffee, a family recipe shared around the table, and of course, golden and crispy cornbread that can only be achieved when cooked in a cast iron skillet. Not just any cast iron, a Smithey Cast Iron Skillet. Afterall cornbread crafted with heritage, tradition, and the singular dedication of Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon Barrel-Aged flavor is matched only by the meticulously hand-wrought craftsmanship of a Smithey Cast Iron.

Inspired by vintage pieces and built to withstand modern life, the Smithey No. 12 Cast Iron Skillet is handcrafted and forged by our friends at Smithey, creators and purveyors of finely crafted cast irons and pans. A favorite and best seller for a reason, the No. 12 Skillet features expanded surface area and depth for family-sized meals (or leftovers, not that we ever have those), while retaining the signature polished interior. Built for use from cooktop to campfire, this powerhouse kitchen tool is naturally non-stick and free of chemical coatings, and like all good things, only gets better with use and time.

This custom skillet, with signature Smithey branding and our Pappy & Company logo, highlights the combination of craftsmanship, skill, and an ultimate focus on flavor that makes everything taste better. Paired with our Heirloom Cornbread Mix, a collaboration between Pappy & Company and Marsh Hen Mill, promises layers of golden-brown flavor, notes of signature Pappy Van Winkle bourbon barrel-aged caramelized butter and oaky vanilla, and decadently crispy edges. With a final flourish of melted butter, there’s simply nothing better.
