Hi Chilens,

Tex-Mex Sloppy Joes recipe asked for a non-stick skillet.

Just wondering what other peoples experiences have been with these so-called
non-stick skillets.  They seem to work for such a short period of time!
I've bought the most expensive, I've kept them in a pillow case in my pan
cupboard, I've never used any abrasive cleaner nor anything other than nylon
utensils, and they never seem to work well for more than a year! Baring
mysterious scratches that can never be accounted for, they look just like
new.  But try and cook an egg (with chile sauce, to make things more
on-topic) and it needs to be pried and poked from many different angles,
center bit sticking and braking the yolk, of course.  This in a non-stick
pan with a generous glugg of olive oil.  I cook with gas....
