Excellent Paella Pan for 12!
By The Happy Gourmet
For his 16th birthday, my son asked me if we could serve paella at his birthday party to his friends.
I said yes, except for one thing, the list of guests between friends and family went up to about 24 people, and I only have a paella pan which only serves 10. One paella pan was not going to do the job for this birthday dinner. So I scramble online in search of an additional pan to be able to make enough paella for everyone. This new paella pan I bought is much better that the one I’ve had for years, and it did the job wonderfully. The paella cooked well and displayed beautifully. The pan size is just perfect to serve 12 people or more, you can cook about 4 to 5 cups of rice easily, along with all your vegetables, party size chicken drumsticks, pork, shrimp and mussels. It all fits great! Everyone enjoyed dinner and I was a happy camper.
I highly recommend this product.
Have fun making your paella and enjoy your new paella pan if you decide to buy it.

Paella Perfect
By K. Lu
The 18.5″ paella pan fit perfectly on my 22″ Weber BBQ charcoal grill. Making it outdoors on the grill provided as much entertainment for my guests as it made good paella. Also kudos to Amazon for the fast delivery, ordered on Monday arrived here in Hawaii on Thursday.

Great Big Paella Pan!
By J. TEETERS
I love this paella pan. It’s got plenty of room and handles heat evenly. Very sturdy on the stove top and even fits in the oven. Keep in mind it’s 18.5 inches. My first thought was that I could fit a hippo in it! If you would like a smaller pan, they are out there, but since I am cooking for a crowd or for the week, I love the larger size.
