A tilting skillet is a professional kitchen appliance typically used in commercial kitchens and catering operations. It uses contact heat and can boil, pan-fry, braise, or stew food. Commercial kitchens often use them when preparing food in large quantities. The unit can be tilted to transfer food efficiently into containers.
The words tilting pan, tilting skillet (see above), and tilting fryer are often used synonymously. As with the tilting skillet, the tilting pan has a large surface that can be used for pan-frying. Large commercial and industrial kitchens often use tilting pans to pan-fry, braise, or boil large quantities of food. The integrated tilting function make it easier to remove the food and clean the pan.

The temperature can be set with particular precision, which makes tilting pans a good choice for a variety of cooking applications.
