@@MrCastIron yes sir I lived in Texas when I was a kid now live in nebraska always wanted to learn how to cook in a skillet thats where the best foods are made thank you sir!!!
@@jrperez7921 That’s cool!! Cooking in cast iron is not hard. A couple of things to remember, though, is to pre-heat your skillet first and add a little oil of some kind to it. Well, three, lol! Don’t cook over medium heat unless you are searing meat and especially a good ole fatty ribeye!!
First off, you sir are exactly what I expected when I wanted to learn how to season an iron skillet. Secondly you did EXACTLY what I thought you would do, cooked bacon!!! Thank you for the confirmation!
He's right, it is not rocket science. I worked at one of the Lodge stores and I told anyone new to cast iron "there are as many ways to season cast iron as there are people who do it. It comes down to what is easiest and most convenient for you." As long as you're using it and putting a little oil on it immediately after cleaning, you're doing fine.
I have 60+ pieces of cast iron. Many of them were rusty, rescue pieces that needed some TLC to make them usable, but that is easy. I have used either bacon grease or Crisco to season it, just like my mother and her mother did. Excellent video!
Youre a diamond, I've just bought one it will be delivered later. I find it hard to trust all these fancy videos but then a bacon-frying American with a Southern accent comes along and shows how its done, I feel confident in my purchase now.

Any time i get a new cast iron i strip it down to metal and put my own seasoning on it. Not only will it build your confedence in maintaining your cookware, but you will get it almost as good as teflon. I will never buy anything other than cast iron and stainless steel now. With proper care they both will last a life time, so much better than teflon or any "wonder pan"
I'm dead honest, the first thought that came to my mind when I started this video was "He's going to say 'cook in it', isnt he?" 😂 I was right! Lovely advice, and I agree. You get some more flavors in there when you cook with it.
I love your advice. Bought a cast iron skillet a couple of years ago and seasoned it the way you recommended and was very impressed with the result. Since then, I've enjoyed cooking with my pan. Thank you for the simple and common sense approach to this confusing process. I should've made this comment much sooner but better late than never 😊
Love this video. This feller could be family. My momma always said "it ain't that hard. heat the pan on the stovetop til the handles hot. light coat of bacon grease. in oven upside down 450 for one hour. and it gets better the more you cook in it. and you ALWAYS keep that bacon grease."

Good to see you not sand down the Lodge, it's really not needed. Another good tip to season cast iron is to fry in it. Some peanut oil and fry fish, chicken or whatever. Good video sir.

Just bought one of these from a sports warehouse. I was told 20 contradictory facts about using cast iron. Thank you for the video. I didn't want to use a dirty skillet from the store without washing and seasoning it if needed. Miss growing up everyone using these.

YAY! Tell 'em seasoning comes as you cook! It's not rocket science and it won't save you if you don't heat your skillet first and add at least a little bit of oil before you put food in your skillet. I see so many people saying they learned from the "experts", seasoned their skillet with a nice thick coat or multiple coats and the first time they cooked, the seasoning flaked off and their food stuck. Cast iron is good for that. It's sad, so many quit because they got bad advice.
A good friend from the south taught me how to season cast iron 20 years ago and I’ve never had a problem yet. His technique was exactly the same as yours! I cook fatty foods in it for a while before trying anything acidic like chili or anything tomato based. To be honest I have my enameled cast iron Dutch oven for those dishes. Thank you for posting and I’m subscribing 😊
Here in germany most people use potatoes to "burn in" a pean. Use the potatoe peals oil and salt and cook them till they are burned black. That also works as good seasoning. Also what you told us is so true. Nothing better than using the pan allot exists.
Everybody loves bacon! Thanks for the wonderful video, I’ve watched it at least a dozen times over the years and just watched it with my kids to teach them about seasoning our new cast iron pan. Fun education for the whole family.
The southern accent is like a melody 😊. I just bought my cast iron yesterday. This was the most helpful video I’ve seen. You made the concept of a cast iron make sense to me. I’m vegetarian so I will be using vegetable oil in the oven.
Lol! Thanks, Camille! I’m happy to hear you are starting your journey with cast iron! If you ever have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to me, and I’ll do my best to help you out ok!!??

Bacon grease can work well if you use your cast iron pan very regularly. If you don't, the grease coating the pan will go rancid. Even after baked on. I have 1 cast iron pan I use regularly and use bacon grease on for flavor and constant use. My other less used cast iron pans I season with a high temp oil because that has better long term storage qualities.
Recently picked up a Lodge 11" square flat griddle pan and it is absolutely superb. It said pre-seasoned so I tested it first with some pork chops and it performed very well. I seasoned it properly myself though before I put some premium steak on there - and again it was excellent. I think animal fats are a great seasoning for people who use their skillet regularly. If you are the kind of person who only uses it for special occasions however, then I'd avoid them as they can go off and add a rancid taste.
Thank you for this video. I've just been given a Lodge 10.25" cast iron skillet as a Christmas present and wanted to know how to prepare it properly. Your video was clear and to the point without the unnecessary waffle. And by chance, the first thing I intend to cook in it to test it out is bacon :-)
You’re welcome, and thank you too, my friend! Congratulations, and I know you must be excited to get started cooking in your new pan! If I may suggest to you when starting to cook the bacon is to add a little oil in the pan and go no higher than medium on heat, or the pan will smoke, and you will burn the bacon! Happy cooking, and if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me, ok!?
@@MrCastIron hello and many thanks for responding to my comment and the additional advice. I managed to cook with the pan ok today. The first 2 rashers did unfortunately stick (suspect I had the heat a little too high), but the remaining rashers cooked fine. I cleaned the pan afterwards and I've re-seasoned it with ghee fat rather than vegetable oil (which I used the first time - unfortunately I didn't have any bacon fat) and left it in a warm oven for an hour. I'll see how things go next time. I appreciate this may take a bit of getting used too.
Think someone from Lodge stated they mostly preseason to prevent rust while in storage at the warehouse and stores. It's an alternative to covering it in Beeswax that is a bit of a pain to clean off
Thin layer is the trick. No matter what you use to season. But bacon grease smells the best. Thank you for the lesson. Mike. Stay safe and stay cool. I put this important PSA on the CIW play list.
lol all the crazy theories and techniques people use and this is exactly the way i was taught to do it. A 10.25” Lodge is my daily driver. When I first got it I was living in an apartment with two window units that barely kept the place cool and it was 90 degrees outside so I didn’t want to use the stove. I also didn’t want to use olive oil and have the whole place smoked out. I washed it, cooked a pound of bacon in it, poured the grease in a container for later, seared a NY strip, browned some brussel sprouts, and washed it. Then after I cleaned it I used the bacon grease to re-oil it. I did that every day after work for a week. I only cooked a whole pound of bacon the first day and I used it for sandwiches during the week. I did sear a strip in it with bacon grease every day though.
I just found an old (20+ years) lodge pan on the bottom of my grandmothers closet. It is rusted and will need a complete restoration but I am looking forward to doing it while learning more about cast iron. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
My mom was from Mississippi. I'd never listen to anyone about cast iron unless they have an accent like Mr. Cast Iron. You must completely ignore the "i" in "oil"... Plus, anyone whose opinion is "bacon is the best" gets two thumbs up from me...
Lol! Thanks for stopping by and checking us out! I sure appreciate you, my friend!! You get two thumbs up, too, because bacon makes everything better, lol!! 🤣🤣
it's totally fine and safe to wash em with detergents whenever. dawn dish soap and such wont harm the seasoning or patina in any way. Used to be an issue back in the day when we had stuff like Lye in our detergent which would rip right through a patina. just important to make sure its completely dry after and then gets its thin coat of protected oil and its good.
Exactly! When the soap was made with lye, it caused a problem. Big time! But as you say, mild detergent is not a big issue anymore. But because of the way it used to be, the old lesson keeps being taught and passed down with no consideration that even Lodge says it’s ok to use a mild detergent when cleaning and especially before the initial seasoning process! Thanks for sharing this with us, my friend! I hope you consider subscribing to our channel if you have not done so already!? We welcome your feedback here!
Picked up a new Lodge 12" skillet exactly like yours here in the video. For this pan after washing off, Im opting for coconut oil as I have a big jar of it to use. Always appreciate your videos, Mike! Take care brother!
I got 4 lodge cast iron skillets they said preseasoned and they didn’t stick at all for me. I used avocado oil like I do on my blackstone. Has worked great so far but I’m no expert.
I’m a first time user with cast iron and I bought the same one you have except mine is a 10”. I’m going to follow this advice. Thanks this really helps especially that I never used one or even seasoned one 😬😅
You’re welcome, and thank you too, Robin. I know you are excited to get started cooking in your new skillet. If you ever need any help or have questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me anytime, and I’ll do my best to help you.
I can confirm with a skillet it is not a fast Gordon Ramsey type. I cooked 2 steaks on my skillet and it took about 15 minutes. I prefer my steak medium rare and my momma liked hers medium. Boy I tell ya. I thought the amount of time it took I thot it was gonna be like eating some rubber tires but they came out great. In addition the skillet not only made those steaks perfectly. It got a nice well addition of seasoning layer for the next time I use it
Thank you sir. Love the message here - seasoned 2 cast iron skillets before and just got my third. Wish I never got stressed out with the previous times, going to take your advice for this one especially as I’ve used cast iron for a couple of years so I know a few things about them … not rocket science for sure!
Excellent episode Mike. It’s very important to get your Cast iron primed and seasoned so you can make some great food! Nothing like a cast iron skillet! A good cook should be able to cook just about anything in a cast iron skillet. Good point about seasoning being a thin layer of oil on your skillet . I like using bacon grease too. Left you a like my friend. Keep up the good content!
There ain't nothing better then a beautiful ribeye steak on a nicely seasoned cast iron skillet. Steak butter and Skillets go together like red white and blue. A cast iron skillet 🍳 is like man's best friend. A good ol dog that's always by your side. If you ain't cooking with cast iron you ain't cooking
My last Lodge cast iron skillet lasted me six years and I took the advice of a different TH-camr and scrubbed the hell out of it and seasoned it personally but they look so beautifully seasoned right from the get-go I'm wondering if I should even bother removing the original seasoning this time around
1:03 seasoning should not be affected just by washing your pan with soap and water you really need to scrub it off despite what a lot of people think it's definitely okay to wash your cast iron skillet you just need to make sure you're getting off the thin layer of nasty stuff and not scrubbing off your seasoning and make sure you put it back on the burner for a few minutes to dry it
Finally actual southern advice i can use🤣🤣🤣... when looking up this topic I was open to other videos but I was really looking for a southern opinion LMAO. Since I cant ask my grandma whose dancing with Jesus😉. Thankyou

This video was perfectly timed for me. I recently got a brand new cast Iron and not done anything with it yet. Going to follow your lead on my days off. Thanks for sharing Mike 🙌🏼😊
@@MrCastIron at work it’s mostly aluminium. Our char grill is cast Iron and the stove tops are cast iron . One of the stove tops is a flat top which you can put food directly on you but we tend not to and just use it for pot and pans. At home I’ve got a griddle that goes over 2 stove tops at a time. I use that a bit.
This seemed more helpful than other videos that talked about smoke points and everything. I think I'm gonna try it like you did, just using some other oil (I don't have bacon grease at the moment)
I thank you are amazing for saying it's not rocket science to season a skillet lol. Some of the fancy folks will act like you need a degree to learn how to do it. You showed us the easiest way to season that can last us many years of cooking.
@Mr. Cast Iron thanks for the video. What I do is (and I own several Lodge Cast Iron pans-the heavy ones) is I use Cowboy Kent Rollins’ advice. I take the pan and sandpaper it down. I use a 40-60 grit, get near the base and then wash and rinse it off well. Then, I oil it with Avocado Oil or Flaxseed Oil or Grapeseed Oil and pit it in the oven on 450 for 60-90 minutes. Repeat the process 3-4 times. Beats me, after listening to others, why some take the seasoning off by dumping it in a big plastic garbage bag and pour some chemical on it. I’ll de-season it with sandpaper and then get a nice shiny coat. Thanks for the video.
You’re welcome, and thank you too! I haven’t ever sanded one, but I know some folks do. I like avocado oil and grapeseed, but I won’t use flaxseed. I think it’s way overrated. I sure appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us, though, my friend!
@@MrCastIron Ok. Good to know about your view on Flaxseed oil. Why do you think it’s overrated, if you don’t mind my asking? Yeah, I sand them down. In the process as we speak of sanding one. I sand the entire interior and the walls of the pan. It actually has a silverish color patina. This is when I then add a good coating on it and pop it in the oven. 3-4 time cycle.
Well I made a video about it but in case you haven’t seen it yet you can check it out here: The BEST OIL FOR CAST IRON SEASONING Is NOT Flaxseed Oil! th-cam.com/video/IRrb7b0jW-s/w-d-xo.html
@@MrCastIron I like the way you think....Flax seed oil seems like a yuppy way to do it ....I like to season with something I use every day. My lodge has olive 🫒 oil. My rv skillet has canola oil that I spay on. Nothing fancy.
Great to hear that! I know you must be excited to get started cooking in it too! I'm glad this video helped you, and if you ever have any questions about your cast iron, don't hesitate to reach out to me, and I'll do my best to help you, ok!??
I bought that exact one and didnt season it prior to using. Bad mistake. It got rusted after the first wash and I noticed it the next day when i went to use it again. Ended up seasoning it afterwards and works good now
This was SO informative Mike!! I saw this very pan at Costco just yesterday and was ALMOST going to get it..but was afraid to because I wasnt sure if I needed to season it. Im gonna go back and get it..because it was 2 pack for like $14!!! You are the Cast Iron King my Friend!!!

@@MrCastIron Thank you, sir, and a great day to you 🙂 Looking forward to more of your videos!
You’re welcome! We sure appreciate you following us! Out of curiosity, is there anything, in particular, you would like to see us address in a video?
Good to see you not sand down the Lodge, it's really not needed.
Another good tip to season cast iron is to fry in it. Some peanut oil and fry fish, chicken or whatever.
Good video sir.
You are right. It is not needed! All we need to do is cook in it, lol!! Frying is good too!! You’re starting to make me hungry now, lol!! Thanks for stopping by and checking it out, my friend!!

I trust this guy! To the point with no BS
Just bought one of these from a sports warehouse. I was told 20 contradictory facts about using cast iron. Thank you for the video. I didn't want to use a dirty skillet from the store without washing and seasoning it if needed. Miss growing up everyone using these.

Awesome!
YAY! Tell 'em seasoning comes as you cook! It's not rocket science and it won't save you if you don't heat your skillet first and add at least a little bit of oil before you put food in your skillet. I see so many people saying they learned from the "experts", seasoned their skillet with a nice thick coat or multiple coats and the first time they cooked, the seasoning flaked off and their food stuck. Cast iron is good for that. It's sad, so many quit because they got bad advice.
That's right, Jerry! You can’t quit because you had something burn or stick. You have to learn what works and what doesn’t!
A good friend from the south taught me how to season cast iron 20 years ago and I’ve never had a problem yet.
His technique was exactly the same as yours! I cook fatty foods in it for a while before trying anything acidic like chili or anything tomato based. To be honest I have my enameled cast iron Dutch oven for those dishes.
Thank you for posting and I’m subscribing 😊
That's cool, Steve! Thanks for sharing this with us, and thanks for subscribing, too, my friend!!
Here in germany most people use potatoes to "burn in" a pean. Use the potatoe peals oil and salt and cook them till they are burned black. That also works as good seasoning.
Also what you told us is so true. Nothing better than using the pan allot exists.
That is very interesting Zydia! Thanks for sharing this with us my friend!!
Everybody loves bacon! Thanks for the wonderful video, I’ve watched it at least a dozen times over the years and just watched it with my kids to teach them about seasoning our new cast iron pan. Fun education for the whole family.
The southern accent is like a melody 😊. I just bought my cast iron yesterday. This was the most helpful video I’ve seen. You made the concept of a cast iron make sense to me. I’m vegetarian so I will be using vegetable oil in the oven.
Lol! Thanks, Camille! I’m happy to hear you are starting your journey with cast iron! If you ever have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to me, and I’ll do my best to help you out ok!!??
@@MrCastIron Will do! Thank you!
You’re welcome anytime, my friend!!
There aren’t any vegetables 🥗 in vegetable oil. Use avocado oil.
@@OCAZZ1323 vegetable oil is not plant based?
Brilliant video from a genuine Southern Gentleman! Greetings from England from a newcomer to the cast iron crew and many thanks indeed, sir.

@@MrCastIron Thanks a million, friend.
My pleasure!
Thank you dear Sir. Very helpful advice and use directions for a beginner Lodge cast iron skillet user. Regards from Greece!
Your welcome anytime my friend!!
Bacon grease can work well if you use your cast iron pan very regularly. If you don't, the grease coating the pan will go rancid. Even after baked on. I have 1 cast iron pan I use regularly and use bacon grease on for flavor and constant use. My other less used cast iron pans I season with a high temp oil because that has better long term storage qualities.
Recently picked up a Lodge 11" square flat griddle pan and it is absolutely superb. It said pre-seasoned so I tested it first with some pork chops and it performed very well. I seasoned it properly myself though before I put some premium steak on there - and again it was excellent.
I think animal fats are a great seasoning for people who use their skillet regularly. If you are the kind of person who only uses it for special occasions however, then I'd avoid them as they can go off and add a rancid taste.
Thats great!! Thanks for sharing this with us my friend!
I'm glad you said that the first thing to do is to remove the paper label. I almost left that on...
Lol! That’s right, Jeffrey! We might be surprised at who would leave it on, though!! Thanks for the laughs this morning, my friend!
Thank you for this video. I've just been given a Lodge 10.25" cast iron skillet as a Christmas present and wanted to know how to prepare it properly. Your video was clear and to the point without the unnecessary waffle. And by chance, the first thing I intend to cook in it to test it out is bacon :-)
You’re welcome, and thank you too, my friend! Congratulations, and I know you must be excited to get started cooking in your new pan! If I may suggest to you when starting to cook the bacon is to add a little oil in the pan and go no higher than medium on heat, or the pan will smoke, and you will burn the bacon! Happy cooking, and if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me, ok!?
@@MrCastIron hello and many thanks for responding to my comment and the additional advice. I managed to cook with the pan ok today. The first 2 rashers did unfortunately stick (suspect I had the heat a little too high), but the remaining rashers cooked fine. I cleaned the pan afterwards and I've re-seasoned it with ghee fat rather than vegetable oil (which I used the first time - unfortunately I didn't have any bacon fat) and left it in a warm oven for an hour. I'll see how things go next time. I appreciate this may take a bit of getting used too.
You’re welcome! It gets better and better over time! If you like cornbread, cast iron makes the best!
Thanks Mr. Cast Iron. I just forwarded this video to my buddy who was asking about seasoning his first ever piece of Cast Iron. 👍🏿
Awesome!! Thank you for sharing this with him! I hope it helps him!! Have a great day my friend!!
Think someone from Lodge stated they mostly preseason to prevent rust while in storage at the warehouse and stores. It's an alternative to covering it in Beeswax that is a bit of a pain to clean off
That's a good tip about the handle heating up. Great video.
Thanks bud!
Finally a straight direct answer
Thanks Marcus!
@@MrCastIron no problem thank you
Thin layer is the trick. No matter what you use to season. But bacon grease smells the best. Thank you for the lesson. Mike. Stay safe and stay cool. I put this important PSA on the CIW play list.
Thanks, Sean!! We did a shoutout on our show Sunday night for this upcoming month's breaded meat challenge! Thanks again buddy for all you do!!
lol all the crazy theories and techniques people use and this is exactly the way i was taught to do it. A 10.25” Lodge is my daily driver. When I first got it I was living in an apartment with two window units that barely kept the place cool and it was 90 degrees outside so I didn’t want to use the stove. I also didn’t want to use olive oil and have the whole place smoked out. I washed it, cooked a pound of bacon in it, poured the grease in a container for later, seared a NY strip, browned some brussel sprouts, and washed it. Then after I cleaned it I used the bacon grease to re-oil it. I did that every day after work for a week. I only cooked a whole pound of bacon the first day and I used it for sandwiches during the week. I did sear a strip in it with bacon grease every day though.
I love your video, your explanation of seasoning a cast iron pan is simple and logical. Thank you and god bless you
You’re welcome, and thank you too, my friend! God bless you also!
I just found an old (20+ years) lodge pan on the bottom of my grandmothers closet. It is rusted and will need a complete restoration but I am looking forward to doing it while learning more about cast iron. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
That is awesome! If we can ever help in any way, don't hesitate to reach out, and we will do our best to help, ok!?
What a great video. Especially enjoyed your accent and to finish it off with bacon, well just brilliant.
My mom was from Mississippi. I'd never listen to anyone about cast iron unless they have an accent like Mr. Cast Iron. You must completely ignore the "i" in "oil"...
Plus, anyone whose opinion is "bacon is the best" gets two thumbs up from me...
Lol! Thanks for stopping by and checking us out! I sure appreciate you, my friend!! You get two thumbs up, too, because bacon makes everything better, lol!! 🤣🤣
Thank you for simplifying how to season a new preseason cast iron skillet.
You’re welcome, Marie, and thank you too, my friend!
This makes me want to run down to Lodge (15 minute drive) and buy something. I love their store.
Lol! I hear ya! If I lived 15 minutes away I’d be broke all the time!
it's totally fine and safe to wash em with detergents whenever. dawn dish soap and such wont harm the seasoning or patina in any way. Used to be an issue back in the day when we had stuff like Lye in our detergent which would rip right through a patina. just important to make sure its completely dry after and then gets its thin coat of protected oil and its good.
Exactly! When the soap was made with lye, it caused a problem. Big time! But as you say, mild detergent is not a big issue anymore. But because of the way it used to be, the old lesson keeps being taught and passed down with no consideration that even Lodge says it’s ok to use a mild detergent when cleaning and especially before the initial seasoning process! Thanks for sharing this with us, my friend! I hope you consider subscribing to our channel if you have not done so already!? We welcome your feedback here!
I only trust people who call it ool. 😀
Thank you for explaining what seasoning is.! Been watching alot of videos, and this is the first one that actually explained it. Great video!
You are so welcome! I'm glad it was helpful!
Got ahead of you there and tested if it was dry enough by putting three fingers directly into the middle of it….handle would have been a better option
Yeah either way can be a little warm to the touch lol!
Picked up a new Lodge 12" skillet exactly like yours here in the video. For this pan after washing off, Im opting for coconut oil as I have a big jar of it to use. Always appreciate your videos, Mike! Take care brother!
This man out straight bacon fat onto his pan to cook strips of bacon.
Legendary.
Yes sir!! You gotta love a little bacon and bacon grease!! Thanks for stopping by and checking it out my friend!! Have a great week ahead!
Just got one of these for Christmas. Reading through the comments I appreciate your ability to engage with your community.
Hope you enjoy it! Sorry I missed this comment somehow! Thanks for checking out our channel, my friend!
I got 4 lodge cast iron skillets they said preseasoned and they didn’t stick at all for me. I used avocado oil like I do on my blackstone. Has worked great so far but I’m no expert.
Avocado oil is my go to as well. Almost no taste, high smoke point, clean oil
I’m a first time user with cast iron and I bought the same one you have except mine is a 10”. I’m going to follow this advice. Thanks this really helps especially that I never used one or even seasoned one 😬😅
You’re welcome, and thank you too, Robin. I know you are excited to get started cooking in your new skillet. If you ever need any help or have questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me anytime, and I’ll do my best to help you.
I can confirm with a skillet it is not a fast Gordon Ramsey type. I cooked 2 steaks on my skillet and it took about 15 minutes. I prefer my steak medium rare and my momma liked hers medium. Boy I tell ya. I thought the amount of time it took I thot it was gonna be like eating some rubber tires but they came out great. In addition the skillet not only made those steaks perfectly. It got a nice well addition of seasoning layer for the next time I use it
That’s awesome! I love hearing stories like this! You can’t beat a good steak in a cast iron skillet! Thanks for sharing with us, my friend!
@Justin,
Seasoning during cooking.
Our preferred method.
Thank you sir. Love the message here - seasoned 2 cast iron skillets before and just got my third. Wish I never got stressed out with the previous times, going to take your advice for this one especially as I’ve used cast iron for a couple of years so I know a few things about them … not rocket science for sure!
You’re welcome, and thank you too, my friend!
Excellent episode Mike. It’s very important to get your Cast iron primed and seasoned so you can make some great food! Nothing like a cast iron skillet! A good cook should be able to cook just about anything in a cast iron skillet.
Good point about seasoning being a thin layer of oil on your skillet . I like using bacon grease too. Left you a like my friend. Keep up the good content!
Thank you!! Yes a good oiled skillet and the right ingredients and we could have us a feast lol!! Thanks again for checking it out my friend!!
That's the way I season my new pre-seasoned Lodge cast iron! Great tips Mike! Have a great day my friend!
Thanks, Charley! It works every time don't it buddy??
I trust the accent, for sure. Thank you, unk
Lol! You’re welcome and thank you too my friend! Or is it nephew? Lol! 😂😂
I literally just ordered the Lodge 12-inch chef's skillet. I'm using the advice in this video for it's first use, hopefully this weekend.
That’s cool! Let me know how it goes, ok!?
There ain't nothing better then a beautiful ribeye steak on a nicely seasoned cast iron skillet. Steak butter and Skillets go together like red white and blue.
A cast iron skillet 🍳 is like man's best friend. A good ol dog that's always by your side.
If you ain't cooking with cast iron you ain't cooking
"Ain't that the truth"

Thanks for all your videos Mr Cast Iron
I got my very first Cast Iron today and I can’t wait to use it. Thx for sharing 😍
That is so cool!! I would love to see what you cook in it!! Thanks for stopping by and sharing this with us my friend!!
Finally a simple explanation, thank you! Is there any vegan food you could recommend I use to cook first time?
You’re welcome, and thank you too, Mia. Yes, if you like onions, you can sauté onions to help season your skillet!
@@MrCastIron wow thank you so much I will definitely try that!
You’re welcome! Let me know how it turns out, ok?
@@MrCastIron I certainly will! Thank you for taking the time to reply, it’s so kind of you.

I like your approach in seasoning a cast iron pan. Thanks!!
Thanks Susan! I sure appreciate you, my friend!
Best advice ever! for cast iron, season once and cook, cook, cook. Great video!
Thank you, my friend!! Let’s cook some bacon and season our pans, right!? What do you think!?
Perfect! Exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you for explaining it the way you did 👍
My last Lodge cast iron skillet lasted me six years and I took the advice of a different TH-camr and scrubbed the hell out of it and seasoned it personally but they look so beautifully seasoned right from the get-go I'm wondering if I should even bother removing the original seasoning this time around
1:03 seasoning should not be affected just by washing your pan with soap and water you really need to scrub it off despite what a lot of people think it's definitely okay to wash your cast iron skillet you just need to make sure you're getting off the thin layer of nasty stuff and not scrubbing off your seasoning and make sure you put it back on the burner for a few minutes to dry it
Dont bother removing the seasoning and re seasoning it again...its a waste of time of energy...its good to go if u buy a preseasoned skillet
Just started cooking with my cast iron 10" skillet and I love it!
Congratulations! I’m sure you will enjoy cooking all sorts of things for years to come! I love cooking in all of mine!
Finally actual southern advice i can use🤣🤣🤣... when looking up this topic I was open to other videos but I was really looking for a southern opinion LMAO. Since I cant ask my grandma whose dancing with Jesus😉. Thankyou

That’s cool, Jamie!! I love my cast iron, and I’m sure you will too!! You probably already cook in some now, don’t you!!??
@@MrCastIron at work it’s mostly aluminium. Our char grill is cast Iron and the stove tops are cast iron . One of the stove tops is a flat top which you can put food directly on you but we tend not to and just use it for pot and pans.
At home I’ve got a griddle that goes over 2 stove tops at a time. I use that a bit.
That’s cool!! You will love a good skillet and especially for a fatty ribeye steak, and cornbread, and bacon, and eggs and…. Lol
@@MrCastIron 😂 and everything
Eggsackly lol

You’re welcome and thank you too my new friend!! Welcome!!
I’m glad you said that as I really could not be bothered baking for an hour in an oven then repeating! Thanks 👍
You’re welcome! It’s not really needed to bake them off every time in the oven and this works too!
Thanks for this good tutorial! Bonus that we all get a batch of bacon!
You’re welcome my friend!! Yes the bacon was what I was waiting for lol!!
This seemed more helpful than other videos that talked about smoke points and everything. I think I'm gonna try it like you did, just using some other oil (I don't have bacon grease at the moment)
I thank you are amazing for saying it's not rocket science to season a skillet lol. Some of the fancy folks will act like you need a degree to learn how to do it. You showed us the easiest way to season that can last us many years of cooking.
You’re welcome and thank you for sharing this with us my friend! Happy cast iron cooking!!
Yes You do absolutely ! 2 or 3 times for the 1st year !
So bacon grease and then more bacon grease?
This is gonna be fun.
😁
@Mr. Cast Iron thanks for the video. What I do is (and I own several Lodge Cast Iron pans-the heavy ones) is I use Cowboy Kent Rollins’ advice. I take the pan and sandpaper it down. I use a 40-60 grit, get near the base and then wash and rinse it off well. Then, I oil it with Avocado Oil or Flaxseed Oil or Grapeseed Oil and pit it in the oven on 450 for 60-90 minutes. Repeat the process 3-4 times. Beats me, after listening to others, why some take the seasoning off by dumping it in a big plastic garbage bag and pour some chemical on it. I’ll de-season it with sandpaper and then get a nice shiny coat. Thanks for the video.
You’re welcome, and thank you too! I haven’t ever sanded one, but I know some folks do. I like avocado oil and grapeseed, but I won’t use flaxseed. I think it’s way overrated. I sure appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us, though, my friend!
@@MrCastIron Ok. Good to know about your view on Flaxseed oil. Why do you think it’s overrated, if you don’t mind my asking? Yeah, I sand them down. In the process as we speak of sanding one. I sand the entire interior and the walls of the pan. It actually has a silverish color patina. This is when I then add a good coating on it and pop it in the oven. 3-4 time cycle.
Well I made a video about it but in case you haven’t seen it yet you can check it out here: The BEST OIL FOR CAST IRON SEASONING Is NOT Flaxseed Oil!
th-cam.com/video/IRrb7b0jW-s/w-d-xo.html
@@MrCastIron I like the way you think....Flax seed oil seems like a yuppy way to do it ....I like to season with something I use every day. My lodge has olive 🫒 oil. My rv skillet has canola oil that I spay on. Nothing fancy.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, my friend!
Can you use cast iron on a glass top stove?
Yes
Yes, not recommended. I do it all time! Job don't move it scrape the glass top.

@@tezsal1501 anytime my friend!
I bought that exact one and didnt season it prior to using. Bad mistake. It got rusted after the first wash and I noticed it the next day when i went to use it again. Ended up seasoning it afterwards and works good now
Thanks for sharing your experience with us, my friend. Did you lightly oil it after washing it?
@@MrCastIron yes sir, washed it then let it dry and i used canola oil since it was all i had. Baked it in the oven at 450f for an hour
Cool! As you continue cooking in it, layers will be added each time, and before long, it will look like a picture, lol!
@L that’s a great question and this may help you Does Apple Cider Vinegar Remove Rust From Cast Iron?

I have several seasoning videos, but I don’t think I made one after the vinegar video.
This was SO informative Mike!! I saw this very pan at Costco just yesterday and was ALMOST going to get it..but was afraid to because I wasnt sure if I needed to season it. Im gonna go back and get it..because it was 2 pack for like $14!!! You are the Cast Iron King my Friend!!!
Thank you, Karen!! Go get it and clean it up and start cooking, lol!! Just don’t call me late for supper though lol!!

Being a California boy who loves visiting the south to visit my X-pat Cali friends to go hunting and fishing….
