Found in an abandoned house clean out. Based on the state of the pan and the house I decided it needed to be stripped and re-seasoned. The place was not fit for pigs. Nice pan though; old 3 notch #5 Lodge.

Stripped it with oven cleaner then used a rotary wire brush to get the last few stubborn spots. Scrubbed it well with stainless scrub pad and scouring powder and a final wash with Dawn.

Then into the oven for 3 new coats of lard seasoning

Finished product looks pretty good I think.

Should be good for a few more centuries now.
