What's Cookin? beat up phone chargers edition

I have 4 CI skillets a griddle and a Dutch oven and use them (one I bought at a garage sale for a dollar because it had hardened tar in it so I threw it into a bon fire one night)

I just finished cleaning the one I made breakfast with

A friend of my wife cleaned one of mine with an SOS pad and proudly showed me how clean she got it and I almost cried

 

I throw mine on the grill get it really hot and sear steaks in them

 

I met a Canadian chef that told me she would love to use cast iron but the health department would require her to put it in the dishwasher

 

I agree about the cornbread, but there’s not much I don’t cook in cast iron. Even eggs. It wipes clean.

 

Definitely over easy eggs just use enough butter

 

At least it’s not ruined. Just cook with it and it will be good as used in no time.

 

I throw steaks in the sous vide and then sear in cast iron. Perfect temp every single time.

 

Even scrambled

 

When all of that Teflon etc stuff wears out where do people think all of that Teflon goes

And Teflon should never be heated above 400 degrees which everyone does when preheating

 

I cook scrambled eggs differently

I use a stainless pan with a lot of butter cook on way low and gently fold the eggs with a rubbery spatula

No sticking easy clean fluffy

I have two great copper clad pots I dragged back from a Paris chef supply store they aren’t even made anymore to the weight I have

 

I’ll warm it up with whiskey if it stings too much.

 

Oh yeah

That was many moons ago

Amazing what a ribeye in it on a hot grill will do

Grease/Seasoning flying everywhere

 

African Peanut Butter Soup. Vegetable broth, onions, fresh garlic, peas, carrots, crunchy peanut butter. First fed to me by a lovely Nigerian woman long ago. Super easy, made in the crock pot.
Pistachio pie, cheesecake banana pie, Irish Cream coffee.

 

And then ruin it until you get it seasoned again.
