The Bourgeat Elite Pro feels like a proper bit of kit the moment you pick it up. It has a reassuring heft that speaks to its quality, but it's balanced enough for quick work on the line.

It’s a pan built for the graft of a real kitchen.

  • Pro-Level Durability: The 4-layer coating and  riveted handle withstand constant daily use.
  • Manual Care Needed: It's hand-wash only, so no quick cycles in the dishwasher.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Table, a popular modern eatery in Bristol, needed to upgrade their cookware. Their existing pans were struggling with the new induction cooktops, leading to inconsistent cooking and  frustrating sticking issues during their busy brunch service.

"We were getting so frustrated with hot spots and  food sticking, which slows the whole kitchen down. The Bourgeat Elite Pro pans have been superb. They heat so evenly on the induction hobs, the non-stick surface is incredibly reliable, and  they just feel built to last. It's made a tangible difference to our speed and  consistency."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

Since switching, the kitchen has achieved a 30% faster ticket time for pan-fried dishes and  virtually eliminated food wastage from sticking.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, wash the pan with warm, soapy water and  dry thoroughly.
  • It's good practice to lightly 'season' the pan by wiping a small amount of cooking oil over the non-stick surface.
  • Always place the pan centrally on the hob ring for the most even heat distribution.
  • Ensure the handle is not positioned over an adjacent heat source.

Keeping It Going

  • Always allow the pan to cool down completely before washing to prevent thermal shock.
  • Hand wash only with a soft cloth or sponge; avoid abrasive scourers and  harsh chemicals.
  • To protect the non-stick surface, use wooden, silicone, or nylon utensils instead of metal.
  • Store carefully, using the hanging hole or placing a pan protector inside if stacking.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Frying Pan

Not sure what to look for? When you're buying a pan for professional use, a few key details make all the difference. Here’s a quick checklist to help you choose wisely.

Material Matters

Aluminium is fantastic for fast, even heating, which is why it's a chef favourite. A stainless steel base is essential for induction compatibility, giving you the best of both worlds.

Handle with Care

A handle that gets hot is a hazard. Look for cast steel or iron handles that are designed to stay cool on the hob, and  check that they are securely riveted to the pan body.

Coating is King

For non-stick, more layers are better. A single coating will wear out quickly under professional use. A 3 or 4-layer system offers far greater durability and  longevity.

Check Your Hobs

Not all pans work on all hobs. If you use induction, you must choose a pan with a ferromagnetic base. 'All heat source' compatibility is the most versatile option.

Get the Right Size

Consider your menu. A 20cm pan is great for a single fried egg, while a 28-32cm pan is better for searing multiple portions of meat or creating main course dishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this frying pan definitely compatible with induction hobs?

A: Yes, absolutely. It features a stainless steel base specifically designed for excellent performance on all heat sources, including induction.

Q: What is the handle made from and  does it get hot?

A: The handle is made from cast steel and  is designed to stay cool to the touch when used on the hob. However, it will get hot if used in an oven.

Q: Is this pan oven safe?

A: Yes, thanks to its all-metal construction, this pan is typically safe for oven use up to around 220°C. Always allow it to cool before washing.

Q: Can I use metal utensils on the non-stick surface?

A: To prolong the life of the 4-layer non-stick coating, we strongly recommend using only wooden, silicone, or heat-resistant nylon utensils.

Q: Why is it hand-wash only and not dishwasher safe?

A: The harsh detergents and  high heat of commercial dishwashers can degrade non-stick coatings over time. Gentle hand washing is the best way to maintain its performance.

Q: How heavy is the pan? Is it easy to handle?

A: It weighs 1.57kg. It has a reassuring, professional weight that aids even heating but is well-balanced for comfortable use during a busy service.

Q: What is PFOA-free coating?

A: PFOA is a chemical sometimes used in the manufacturing of non-stick coatings. A PFOA-free coating means it has been made without this specific chemical, which is a modern standard for health and  safety.

Q: Does the handle have a hole for hanging?

A: Yes, the handle features an integrated hole at the end, making it easy to hang on a pot rack for convenient and  space-saving storage.

What Customers Are Saying

A fantastic professional non stick frying pan. Has a solid, balanced feel and  the non-stick surface is the best I've ever used. Worth every penny for a busy kitchen.

Grace Martin – Bistro Owner, York

Absolutely brilliant pan. It's our go-to for everything from eggs to fish now. Heats up quickly on our induction range and  is a breeze to clean after service.

Leo Carter – Head Chef, Edinburgh

Top quality pan and  the performance is undeniable. My only minor point is that it's hand-wash only, but it cleans so easily it's hardly a chore. Highly recommended.

More Than Just 'Non-Stick': Why Four Layers Make the Difference

Ever had a non-stick pan that starts to peel or scratch after just a few months? That's often because it has a single, thin coating. The Bourgeat Elite Pro's 4-layer system is a completely different approach. Think of it like applying multiple coats of durable varnish to a piece of wood instead of just one. Each of the four layers is chemically bonded to the one below it, creating a single, unified surface that is far more resilient. This layered 'armour' is exceptionally resistant to the scrapes and  bumps of daily professional use, ensuring your non-stick performance doesn't just fade away. It’s built for longevity, giving you consistent, stick-free cooking for much longer.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Bistros: An essential 280mm non stick frying pan for searing meats, sautéing vegetables, and  crafting perfect sauces on any hob.
  • Hotel Kitchens: A reliable choice for consistently turning out perfect breakfast omelettes or preparing fine dining components.
  • Gastro Pubs: Perfect for handling a high-volume menu, from pan-fried fish to sizzling skillet dishes for the specials board.
  • Culinary Schools: An exceptionally durable pan for teaching students professional techniques on a wide range of cooktops.
