Cliff. Those pans are cheap !!! I can't imagine paying $350 for one. That would buy almost a hundred of the real thing. They are just cheap, thin steel with handles. I think I saw some in TJ some years back. Mine is not a real paella pan except for shape & size. It's thicker metal, non stick coated, & maybe 14 to 16 in., in diameter with a glass lid. Don't remember where I got it (Costco most likely), but the size and shape were good. My former wife & I would always make paella with the (real) pan supported by bricks on a little fire in our back yard fireplace, making sure the pan was absolutely level and feeding it with pieces of wood. That's why I do them in the BBQ, & it works out very well. My recipe isn't exact - one of those that says two hand fulls of rice, etc. - and I've had it for forty plus years. If I remember right, it's from Spain. I'll see if I can post it if you want me to. Shaun, I don't remember how long exactly or the temp. I just watch it and add pieces of charcoal to keep it gently bubbling until the rice is done.
