Thread: Cast iron?

$10.00 garage sale find this morning. Time to clean and season. [emoji3]

I passed on a 10" griddle today because of what I think is acid corrosion on the bottom from coal. If I had even a hint of the brand I would have bought it. Someone used it many times and it is still a very usable pan.....

Seasoning a 10" Lodge Griddle today

Unfortunately re-seasoning my 10" Lodge Skillet along with it, Dumb Dumb Dumb move, thought I turned the front burner off after making Bacon and Eggs for us yesterday morning..
Went and took a shower came down to a smoky Kitchen and the seasoning burned off the Skillet

Scrubbed it out with some Steel Wool and started the process on both pans last night

Walmart had the last of the 15% off sale online Friday so I ordered the 10" Cast Iron Griddle and finished up want I wanted in their Carbon Steel to get the discount..


Pics coming after they all arrive

For a guy that is so smart you sure can be dumb sometimes,""Your Wife"" Ha,Ty

I hope you didn't warp or crack it.

Does anyone here have an opinion of these?

Lodge Logic Cast Iron Reversible Pro Grid Iron Griddle.

I have never used one but they look very gimmicky.

Putting the flame onto one or the other cooking surfaces doesn't seem like a good thing.....

P.S. and then they put their logo on the smooth side.......

Yes.

At a minimum you would be burning off your seasoning on the bottom side without thinking about acid corrosion from the flame.

I don't think it would work on an electric stove because of the ridges on the sides.

Why is the logo on the "smooth" side and not on the other?

Well I've used mine on an Electric Stove for several years with good results. You do lose the seasoning on one side, but I find it easy to reestablish.

With that said, I generally use the smooth side for pancakes, eggs, meats etc. Every once in awhile when the weather keeps me inside and the BBQ unused I'll use the 'Grill side' for steaks and such.

I find it a very useful tool and recommend it. But to each their own

As long as it isn't cracked don't worry about it Glen. I had a smoke filled kitchen last month too. My Mother used to chuck her cast iron in the electric oven and set it on "clean" to burn the carbon crud off the outside of skillets. She would let it cool down slowly in the oven and when it was done I would blow the ash dust off with an air hose. Afterwards she would wash it with a Brillo and re-season. Happy cooking with your cast iron.
