Craig Conover uses these stunning pans that are 'awesome for scrambled eggs and bacon' in the morning – and they make hosting easy
A 10-piece cookware set is a holiday staple in the 'Southern Charm' star's home – making it easy to cook for large groups no matter the season or year


The kitchen is the heart of the home, and pots and pans are the heart of the kitchen. These simple cooking devices have the power to make or break our cooking, and can even be a valuable part of decor. Clearly, Craig Conover agrees.
The Southern Charm actor explained his love for non-stick frying pans to Forbes, stating: 'I’m a big soup guy, so I think a great soup pot is a nice thing to have for the holiday season. I keep a set of All-Clad pots and pans [available from Williams Sonoma] at my house in Charleston for holiday hosting. I love making cheddar broccoli, chicken noodles, and vegetable beef soup, and the way the All-Clad pot holds its heat makes cooking so much easier. When it comes time to make your guests breakfast, the sauté pan is also awesome for scrambled eggs and bacon.'
Though the holidays have passed, the need for frying pans and pots certainly hasn't. If you're hoping to replace your pots and pans, his recommendation is a great place to start. Made of the highest quality stainless steel at a reasonable price for such a large set, his 10-piece cookware set is an easy way to overhaul your cabinets.
The best part about buying beautiful pans is you don't necessarily need to overthink pot and pan storage. Instead, your beautiful cookware can be featured out in the open. From hanging pans, to dutch ovens stored on the cooktop, this is a laid-back and cozy way to style your kitchen for a lasting impact. Craig Conover's recommendation fits the brief.

Gordon Ramsay swears by the pans from Hexclad. It's the exact pan I first purchased. This 'perfect' pan handled everything I've thrown at it, and than some. It is the ideal size if you are preparing meals for 2-4 people, and after five years, it still looks as good as new.
Gwyneth Paltrow loves this set that includes one five-quart casserole dish with a handled glass lid, one three-quart sauté pan with a handled glass lid, two open frypans (eight-inch and eleven-inch), and two saucepans (two-quart and three-quart) that each come with a handled glass lid.
The chef is only as good as his or her tools, and the best pans are the perfect place to start.
