Stabilotherm Hunter Pan with Folding Handle — Outdoor Open-Fire Frying Pan (Carbon Steel, Sweden Made)

Meet the Stabilotherm Hunter Pan

The Stabilotherm Hunter Pan is a robust outdoor frying pan crafted from 100% carbon steel. With a diameter of 21 cm and a thoughtfully designed folding handle (11 cm when extended), it’s built for kitchen-style results over campfires, grills, and open flames. Made in Ulriceham, Sweden, this pan reflects careful production and a intention to endure long trips into the wilderness. When properly cared for, it’s a reliable companion that can handle high heat and varied outdoor conditions while remaining easy to maintain.

Designed for the Outdoors

This pan is purpose-built for cooking over open fire and camp pits. The metal construction resists high temperatures, so you can sear, fry, and roast with confidence. The folding handle is a space-saver for your pack, and you can even extend it with a stick to keep a safe distance from the heat when needed.

Seasoning, Patina, and Easy Cleanup

A small initial process helps develop a patina: heat the pan and lightly fry fat to begin forming a seasoned surface. Over time, this patina can lessen the amount of oil you need and can simplify cleanup while imparting a subtle aroma during cooking. This approach keeps the experience authentic and practical for outdoor use.

Quality and Craft

Stabilotherm produces this pan in their own facility in Sweden, aligning with strict quality standards. The combination of carbon steel and deliberate design aims for durability, heat stability, and practical handling in rugged environments. Overall dimensions include a 21 cm cooking surface and an 11 cm folded-out handle, balancing control and packability.
