I made the greatest steak fries ever in my 20's using Crisco and Ore Ida steak fries. Never had better fries anywhere since.

Nice! May need to go get some Crisco...
I recently moved into an apartment in town, and my smoker is at my buddy's out in Monitau, so I bought some new pots and pans, along with a brand new cast iron skillet.
Last night, I was craving a steak, so I went to Lucky's, grabbed something that looked good and tasty...and then I did this :

Don't use soap when you clean it, though. Scrub it under hot water, dry it, and rub a little olive or vegetable oil on it before putting it away.

It may have been the best steak I've ever eaten.
