 a "must have" for popoversNov 02, 2010
By Massachusetts Girl
I've tried many recipes and many pans for popovers, including a cast iron pan. But this pan and Martha Stewart's recipe are a never-fail combo. No more popover "muffins." The popovers grow very tall and perfectly crispy on the outside, moist on the inside.

Oh, Heavenly!Feb 18, 2011

"A nice lady"
I purchased three of these, one for me and two for gifts for friends. I will definitely purchase another, as 6 popovers vanish in no time with my family. I used the recipe that came with the packaging and had great success. Actually, after my first attempt I opted not to add the butter to the bottom of the cups because it just wasn't necessary if you give them a squirt of non-stick spray. They literally slide right out of the cups. I've had the popovers reach the height of 8 inches using this pan. Quite "showy" for dinner guests. One trick I learned from my Betty Crocker cook book - when the popovers are done, take them out and poke a hole in the top of each one to let the steam out, then return to the oven for 5 minutes. This avoids the sometimes soggy bottoms from steam buildup and gives a bit of a crisper crust with soft chewy inside. YUM. Make sure you take the popovers right out of the pan into a serving basket as soon as they are done so no steam develops in the bottom of the cup while they sit and cool. Overall I give these specific pans an A+. We use it all the time - from filling with jam and butter to Chicken a la King to curries, popovers rule!

the perfect popoverOct 24, 2010
By emoore6967
I love to bake and this is by far my favorite pan. I have been making popovers in muffin pans. This made my popovers so much better. I could not ask for better bake-ware.

 the non stick peels off!!!Jul 31, 2011
By matthew coluccio
ok... this WAS a great pan. It worked well with really evenly baked popovers consistently. The only problem that I'm having now which is a BIG problem for me since I have kids is that the non stick is peeling off! It's really sad because I love the popovers this pan produced. Too bad they were slowly killing me and my family :( Maybe that's a little dramatic... but the long term health effects from exposure to teflon are debatable.

 non-stick danger zoneDec 05, 2011
By J. Janssen
A little confession first; I don't actually own this item, but I have done some research that might be helpful when you review those negative comments about the non-stick coating peeling off.
When Du Pont first introduced it's Teflon product 50 years ago they enclosed small print warnings about not subjecting the product to high heat. As time passed a great deal of concern emerged about the health damaging properties of Teflon and related non-stick coatings. While Teflon is still around, most non-stick cookware purchased today is finished with unknown polymers that may not have the same chemical properties as the original Teflon. Du Pont maintains that Teflon is safe up to "roasting" temperatures on some data sheets, "broiling" temperatures on other product info, and alternatively references a maximum of 500 degrees in yet a third category of literature. A google search will identify many web pages countering Du Pont's claims with some indication of product instability occurring as low as 460 degrees. The generic versions of Teflon are much harder to quantify, particularly when they're manufactured in countries outside the U.S. or Canada. It's highly likely that the "breakdown point" for some of these alternative coatings may be significantly less than even the 460 degree figure.
This gets us to these popover tins and the recipes many of the reviewers are cooing over. Simply put, they call for a 450-475 degree oven which is dangerously close to, or exceeds, the critical temperature at which Teflon is judged safe by it's manufacturer. Given that these pans are finished with a generic coating, the critical point at which the coating becomes unstable could be significantly lower. Even though Chicago Metallic products are traditionally made in the US, this product does not indicate USA manufacture anywhere on the product description page and it's small cup sibling ("Chicago Metallic Non-Stick 12 Cup Mini Popover Pan") is made in Taiwan, not the US. No identification of the generic non stick coating is provided nor is there any information as to how it is bonded to the underlying substrate in order to to avoid serious "flaking or peeling", a common complaint mentioned by those who have had problems.
All of this leads to my belief that non-stick coatings do not belong on cookware that is subjected to repeated high heat. While coated cake pans may perform just fine at the more moderate temperatures cakes are baked at, the 450-475 degree temps required for popovers is likely beyond the product's margin of safety and sooner or later the material will start to break down after repeated thermal loading. I would also mention that the negative reviews are reporting physical damage to the product's integrity, not the more commonly debated molecular dangers associated with non-stick coatings, which is another matter entirely. Common sense alone would guide most people to avoid any product that "flakes off" into their food even if they don't believe that molecular polymers migrate from coating to food during the thermal process.
I am neither an advocate for, nor against non-stick cookware, but there's enough antidotal evidence out there to suggest there is some problem with these coatings when pushed to their limits. Every purchaser should weigh the benefits of non-stick cookware for themselves and make purchasing decisions appropriate for their families. But, if you persist in using Teflon type products, I can offer a a non stick alternative that you might consider; the US made "Nordic Ware Grand Popover Pan". It costs about twice what the Chicago Metallic pan does but, thus far has garnered a limited number of 5 star reviews with no reports of flaking or peeling.
