Pittsfield, Maine: World's Largest Non-Stick Frying Pan

Ten feet across. Brought out of storage every July and placed under a tent in a field for the Central Maine Egg Festival. Shallow, and not cast iron, so it lacks the visual allure of other giant frying pans.

World's Largest Non-Stick Frying Pan

We just happened to be up here this week for the festival .... tried twice this week to see it but I don't think they put it out this year! I agree with the previous tip it should be out all year!

The Pittsfield frying pan was made in New Jersey... Green Brook I believe.

World's Largest Non-Stick Frying Pan

Brought out of storage every July for the Pittsfield Egg Festival, where it fries eggs under a tent in Manson Park. We lucked out, arriving the day before the festival, so the pan was accessible and unattended. It's ten feet wide, and the handle was off. Off-season frying pans are not too thrilling, but Pittsfield should display theirs on a stand, not hide it in a municipal garage.
