Meyer Pans: Oven-Safe?

Meyer pans are generally oven safe up to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Pans with all stainless steel handles are oven safe up to 260°C/500°F/Gas Mark 10. Meyer Group recommends always using oven gloves when removing cookware from the oven and never placing cookware under a grill/broiler, or close to a heat source in an oven, as this can damage the handles. Before first use, Meyer Group recommends removing any labels or stickers and washing pans and lids with a mild detergent in hot water.

Meyer pan care instructions

Meyer manufactures its products in-house, using the highest-quality materials, to guarantee longevity and performance. To ensure your cookware stays in good condition and is safe to use, there are some instructions you should follow.

Before First Use:

Before using your Meyer pan for the first time, remove any labels or stickers and wash the pan and lid with a mild detergent in hot water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

General Cooking/Safety:

Meyer pans distribute heat evenly, so cooking can be done on a low to medium heat. Depending on the type and length of cooking, lids and handles may get hot. For safety, it is recommended that oven gloves or a cloth are used to lift and move the pan. Keep small children away from the stove while cooking, as heat, steam, and spatter can cause burns.

To enjoy the best cooking performance, match the size of the pan to the heating element or gas burner. Pans should not be filled to more than two-thirds capacity. As soon as the boiling point is reached, the temperature should be lowered. Continuous high heat may cause discolouration. When deep frying, fill the pan to no more than one-third full of oil. Do not leave hot oil unattended and never use a lid.

Avoid leaving food in the pan after cooking, as it may cause deterioration to the pan's surface.

Oven Use:

All Meyer cookware is oven-safe up to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. Cookware with all stainless steel handles are oven-safe up to 260°C/500°F/Gas 10. Glass lids are only oven safe to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4, while full stainless steel lids/knobs can withstand temperatures up to 260°C/500°F/Gas 10. Do not place Meyer pans under a grill/broiler, or close to the heat source in an oven, as this will damage the handles and they could start to give off an odour.

Cleaning:

Before and after each use, wash pans thoroughly with mild dishwashing detergent and warm water. If your cookware is dishwasher-safe, be aware that the harsh dishwashing detergents will eventually dull all of the surfaces and make uncoated surfaces rough to the touch. To retain the appearance, hand washing is preferable.

To remove dried-on food, soak in hot water before washing. If food remains on the surface, boil a mixture of water and vinegar in the pan to dislodge food particles. Do not use bleaches, steel wool, coarse scouring pads, oven cleaners, or powders.

Staining will occur if food is spilled or allowed to boil over onto the exterior of the pan. A spotted white film may form, which can be removed with a mild solution of water and lemon juice or vinegar.

Meyer pan safety instructions

Meyer pans are manufactured with the highest-quality materials to guarantee longevity and performance. However, there are some safety instructions that consumers are recommended to follow. Please note that the following is for general guidance only. For full details on how to care for your Meyer cookware, refer to the use and care manual provided with your product.

Before First Use

Before using your Meyer pan for the first time, remove any labels or stickers and wash the pan and lid with mild detergent in hot water.

General Cooking/Safety

Meyer cookware distributes heat evenly, so cooking can be done on a low to medium heat. Depending on the type and length of cooking, lids and handles may get hot. For safety, it is recommended that oven gloves or a cloth are used to lift and move the pan. Always use oven gloves when removing cookware from the oven.

To enjoy the best cooking performance, match the size of the pan to the heating element or gas burner. When filled, some pans can be very heavy, so take care when moving the pan if it contains hot liquids. Keep small children away from the stove while you are cooking, as heat, steam and spatter can cause burns.

Do not leave a pan on a hot burner or allow it to boil dry. If this happens, turn off the heat and leave the pan to cool before moving it. Pans should not be filled more than two-thirds capacity. As soon as the boiling point is reached, lower the temperature. Continuous high heat may cause discolouration.

When deep frying, fill the pan no more than one-third full of oil. Do not leave hot oil unattended and never use a lid. Heavy vegetable oils may leave a residue that can affect non-stick performance. Use low heat when heating up oils, as they can quickly overheat and cause a fire.

Avoid leaving food in the pan after cooking, as it may cause deterioration to the pan's surface. Never use your Meyer cookware in the microwave.

Care and Maintenance

To avoid scratches or chips on the cookware, place pan protectors or paper towels between pans when storing.

Meyer pan oven temperature limit

Meyer Group's cookware has been manufactured with the highest-quality materials to guarantee longevity and performance. However, to ensure optimal care of Meyer pans, there are a few instructions and temperature limits to adhere to when using them in the oven.

Firstly, it is important to note that all Meyer cookware is oven-safe up to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. This temperature limit applies to all cookware, including those with glass lids. However, if your Meyer cookware has stainless steel handles, knobs, or lids, the maximum oven temperature limit increases to 260°C/500°F/Gas 10.

It is crucial to never place Meyer pans under a grill/broiler or close to an oven's heat source, as this can damage the handles, causing them to emit an odour. Additionally, oven use may cause rubberised handles to fade in colour, although this will not impact the pan's performance.

Meyer pans are designed for stovetop use and distribute heat evenly, so cooking can be done effectively on low to medium heat settings. To optimise the performance and longevity of your Meyer pans, it is recommended to follow the specific care instructions provided with your cookware.

Meyer pan handle safety

Meyer cookware is manufactured with the highest-quality materials to guarantee longevity and performance. However, there are some safety precautions and instructions that users should follow when it comes to Meyer pan handles.

Firstly, Meyer pan handles may get hot during cooking, depending on the type and length of cooking. Therefore, it is recommended to use oven gloves or a cloth when lifting and moving the pans. This is a general safety precaution for all cookware, and it is important to always use oven gloves when removing cookware from the oven.

Meyer offers a range of pan handles, including stainless steel and silicone handles. The riveted stainless steel handles with silicone inserts provide comfort, durability, and a soft grip. These handles are also heat resistant, adding an extra layer of safety. It is important to note that all cookware with stainless steel handles is oven safe up to 260°C/500°F/Gas Mark 10. However, glass lids are only oven safe up to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4, so it is crucial to pay attention to the type of handle and lid on your Meyer cookware.

To avoid any damage to the handles, do not place the pans under a grill or broiler, or close to a heat source in an oven. This can damage the handles, causing them to give off an odour. While oven use may cause rubberised handles to slightly fade in colour, it will not affect performance.

In addition to handle safety, it is important to follow general safety precautions when using Meyer cookware. Always match the size of the pan to the heating element or gas burner, and be careful when moving pans containing hot liquids. Keep children away from the stove while cooking, as heat, steam, and spatter can cause burns.

Meyer pan glass lid safety

Meyer cookware is manufactured with the highest-quality materials to guarantee longevity and performance. However, there are a few safety precautions and instructions that consumers should follow when using Meyer cookware with glass lids.

Firstly, it is important to note that glass lids are only oven-safe up to a certain temperature. Meyer Group's general guidance states that glass lids are oven-safe up to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4. Meyer Canada's 20cm Meyer Accolade Tempered Glass Lid Cover is oven-safe up to 400°F. Exceeding these temperature limits may damage the glass lid and potentially cause safety hazards.

Before the first use, it is recommended to remove any labels or stickers from the cookware and wash the pans and lids with mild detergent in hot water. Meyer's cookware distributes heat evenly, so cooking can be done on low to medium heat. When cooking, it is important to use oven gloves or a cloth when lifting and moving the pan, as the lids and handles can get hot.

When cooking with oil, it is important to use low heat as oils can quickly overheat and cause a fire. Additionally, never leave hot oil unattended, and never use a lid when deep frying. Heavy vegetable oils should be avoided as they may leave a residue that can affect the non-stick performance of the pan.

Meyer also offers non-stick cookware with glass lids, such as the Meyer Nonstick Wok with a Glass Lid from the Accent Series. This product is oven-safe and can be used on gas stovetops and induction stovetops. The glass lid allows you to monitor the cooking process while sealing in heat and flavour.
