Extensive Frequently Asked Questions — Choice 10" Pan
Where can I buy Choice 10" aluminum pans in Canada?
You can purchase professional-grade 6-count cases at ChickenPieces.com. We ship directly from our local Calgary hub to kitchens across Western Canada.
Are these pans dishwasher safe?
No. Hand-washing is recommended. High-alkaline commercial dishwasher detergents can oxidize aluminum, causing a dark grey discoloration and shortening the life of the pan.
Can I use these pans on an induction range?
No. Standard 3003 aluminum is not magnetic. This pan is optimized for use on gas and electric commercial ranges.
What is the benefit of a "natural finish" over non-stick?
Natural finish pans are preferred for high-heat searing. They allow food to brown properly and create "fond," which is essential for making pan sauces and gravies.
Does the handle get hot?
Yes. The plated steel handle will conduct heat during stovetop use. We recommend using a silicone handle sleeve (sold separately) or a kitchen towel for safety.
Why is 10-gauge (3.5 mm) important?
This thickness provides the ideal balance for a busy kitchen—heavy enough to hold heat and resist warping, but light enough for chefs to "toss" and move pans during a long shift.
How many pans come in a case?
Each case contains 6 individual 10" fry pans.
Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
Yes. Because this is not a non-stick pan, metal utensils are acceptable and will not ruin the surface, though high-quality silicone or wood is always a great choice.
Why buy from a Calgary-based supplier like ChickenPieces.com?
Ordering locally ensures you pay in CAD, avoid surprise border duties, and receive your stock in 2–5 days—essential for maintaining consistent service standards.
