Thanks for the information. I learned a lot from your video! My cast iron skillet instructions say to use a 350F oven and it’s always sticky. I did not know to bring the pan to smoking point when putting the fresh oil layer on or to reseason after use. Guess I’ll have to go pull mine out b/c I used it today and didn’t do the steps you showed.
We collect Cast Iron and use them daily. I have found the BEST way to season them is with Coconut Oil. After thoroughly cleaning the piece, coat it really well with the oil. Then get a good campfire burning with lots of coals. Bury the piece in the coals and let it sit for several hours…… Overnight is great. Does a fantastic job !!
Does anybody know how to make biscuits using an iron skillet ON THE BURNER or OVER A CAMPFIRE—not in the oven?
Best to use a Camp oven if cooking biscuits around a campfire. I’d suggest using charcoal though as the heat is easy to control by counting the number of briquettes.
Really good video. One correction though, cast iron isn’t porous. Modern cast has a rough surface leading many to think it’s porous. Also, depending on condition after cleaning, 98% of the time I’ve found it not necessary to oil after cleaning. Rinse with hot water and dry with a paper towel.
