Chicago Metallic Commercial II Uncoated Bread Pan

Chicago Metallic Commercial II Uncoated Bread Pan : The heavy-gauge aluminized-steel used in this professional-grade pan retains heat beautifully and bakes consistently all the way up the sides, so it's perfect for baking delicious homemade breads or meatloaf. Precise folding technology is the key to the pan's strength: steel is folded over at the ends, tripling the corner thickness and reinforcing the rim. A wire rod is curled inside for extra strength and warp-resistance. Choose 1-lb. or 1 1/2-lb. pan. All Chicago Metallic Commercial Bakeware is made to meet the exacting standards of commercial bakers and home cooks who prefer the tradition of baking on uncoated pans. Each pan is crafted from aluminized steel that combines the durability, strength and heat conduction of an aluminum alloy. The uncoated surface offers good reflectivity for even dispersion of heat and more consistent, even baking and gradual browning. After repeated use, darkening of the pan will actually enhance baking performance. Product Features Professional-weight bread pan made of heavy-gauge, aluminized stainless-steel Traditional uncoated surface for consistent, even baking and browning Perfect sizes for all types of breads and meatloaf Holds up to metal utensils Rust- and corrosion-proof Finished with a rolled rim for added strength and warp-resistance Oven-safe to 550 F 25-year limited warranty

What great loaf pans. Heavy-duty and very well made bread pans. Built to last a lifetime.
I looked high and low for this kind of quality. I found other retailers that carry this item, but Chef's catalog had the best prices.
Pros: construction, durability, even cooking, Performs Well

The Perfect Bread Pan for 1 pound Bread Recipe -

This 1 pound loaf pan from Chicago Metallic is the perfect bread pan. Most new bakers use too large of a pan for their loaves. I have used 2 of these pans since the early 90's and have baked hundreds of loaves of bread, whole wheat and white sandwich style. The pans are the correct size for a 3 cup (flour) recipe. My pans look like they did the day I bought them, I know because I just bought a set of 2 for my friend for Christmas - he is a new baker and his first loaves turned out picture perfect. The price seems high but with reasonable care these pans can be handed down to children and then grandchildren. If you are serious about baking the perfect loaf of bread this is the pan you should buy. Commercial quality is correct.
Pros: heavy duty, bakes and releases like a dream
Cons: none

The interior corners on this pan are not sealed/continuous. Unless you like picking bits of dough out of corners this pan is not for you...especially at this price point.
Cons: Expensive/ Price, Quality, Difficult to Clean/Wash, Construction

Best Loaf Pans Ever

I had been looking for a metal loaf pans and was very pleased with these. For baking you can not beat using these metal pans vs. glass. My Bannana bread was a perfect golden brown and was cooked all the way through. When using a glass pan the outside would be over done and the inside raw. I am so glad that I got these!
Pros: capacity, construction, durability, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to store, easy to use, even cooking, Functional/Useful, Long-lasting, Material, Performs Well, quality, size, Value for Money

good bread pan

I've been baking bread for 35 years, and I confess that the first (and only) time that I tried this pan I forgot to put the dough in directly after it completed rising, so I reduced the baking time slightly. Anyway, the bread came out fine and did not stick to the pan. I coated the pan with butter and flour prior to use. Owing to my stupidity I did not bake the bread as long as I normally do, so that may partly explain why the crust was not the best I have made previously. I am assuming it is not the pan's fault. Also, as I understand, the pan darkens with age, which should improve the crust. The pan cleaned up nicely.
My only complaint - it would be nice if the pan also had small handles, but obviously its construction precludes that.
