If you really want to clean it, pour in a cup of salt, scrub, rinse, dry, oil.

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 : Quote:

For seasoning, I still haven't done this, but according to Cook's Illustrated, this is the ultimate way to season a cast iron pan. It'll take some time, but you'll be rewarded.
From a recent edition of Cooks Illustrated (please pardon any typos - I had to re-type it from the magazine): Quote:

I am highly skeptical of the bolded section. I don't like the idea of cleaning a skillet with Easy Off. |

So do you endorse the easy-off method for getting a cast iron skillet ready for re-seasoning then?
I have read that the skillet should sit for 24 hours with the oven cleaner on it. I am thinking of just sticking with 30 minutes though. |

I've never tried it, though I do plan to. That said, I'm a longtime subscriber to CI, and I've tried many of their methods and recipes, and have never even once been led astray.

I am hitting my head with a cast iron skillet right now. God the Chiefs suck.

Did you use your pan at all between rounds? Or are you waiting till all of the seasoning is done? I am trying to wait till I get the pan all the way done, but I am anxious to try it out as well. |
