    The bacon on the right reminds me of when my son was young and I'd be fixing something with fried bacon in it and he'd come in sounding like the dog in those old Begging Strip Commercials. And I'd say "Yes I cooked extra". He's still almost that bad
    It was Zatarains brand file, hopefully that counts. It is ground up sassafras from my understanding.

    I'll be using that extra bacon (BACON!) in some omelettes tomorrow, also in cast iron. That Griswold is incredibly slick and perfect for the job.

    Yunno, I've been eating a lot better ever since I got my cast iron.

    Our first try at bees wax seasoning. We use ice cube trays for molds for wax. I have a try baking in the oven at 425'F now.

    What's the beeswax do for the process? I've just used crisco in the past, with reasonable results on some older CI (Griswold & Wagner Ware).

    Don't know all I know is that it does work quite well and I'm pleased.

    They sell it in a few different offers. Some in tins, some in tins with some just wrapped in plastic wrap and some just in plastic.

    I bought the 4 puck offer just wrapped in plastic for $16 and that included delivery. They arrived very quickly via USPS Priority Small Box.

    I've got them stored in an old sour cream container in the frig.

    Mine did come with instructions for application.
