I will eat your ribs, I will eat them up! Click to listen — The Soldier on the culinary arts

”

The Frying Pan is a promotional melee weapon equippable by all classes with the exception of the Engineer and the Spy. It is a worn cast-iron skillet with patches of grease on the cooking surface and two spout-like openings on the sides.

This weapon functions exactly the same way as the Shovel and Bottle. Upon contact with a surface or player, it will play sound files from Left 4 Dead 2.

This item, together with Ellis' Cap, is awarded to players who own Left 4 Dead 2.

The kill icon for the Frying Pan was contributed by Template:Steam profile link.
