I have a cast iron skillet my mother gave me when I moved out of the house decades ago. Her mother gave it to her so it has to be about 130 years old maybe older. I did a deep dive many years back on conditioning cast iron cook ware and this particular fry pan is a marvel when it comes to stove top or oven cooking. It literally acts like a no stick teflon pan!.

The secret is NEVER let soap touch it. NEVER. Use salt as a medium to scrub it. Add oil or a bit of bacon fat to help the salt work every part of the pan. Rinse in water, wipe dry then a wipe with another oil - I swap out bacon for olive oil and coconut oil, rotating every few weeks.

Same for my dutch ovens which are much more modern.

Since I'm on the cast iron soap box and if you want to be entertained by a cowboy cook who pretty much exclusively cooks with cast iron, check our Kent Rollins on youtube. A master of the chuckwagon, dutch ovens and trivets but be warned, a very high number of his recipes are caloric so if you are working towards a calorie deficit, sort through his offerings but on the other side, my god this is some of the tastiest stuff I've ever cooked.
I will look him up, Thank-you for that,

I cooked for some guest and the steaks after being sous vide was a hit, perfect temperature with quick sear on my Weber.

They asked what I did different and I told them.

My stove just went tits up, so have ordered a new one that has air sous vide and air fry. Looking forward to it. I already have sous vide, instant pot and obviously bbq.
Love my sous vide, but have been collecting air fryer recipes for awhile now lol.
When I do wings I like a bunch of them, or if I’m entertaining, so I’ll be happy that I can do larger batches at once.
I’ll report in once done.

I use a small amount of dish soap on my cast iron that I inherited from my mom. I dry it off on the stove or oven and season it with vegetable oil. Not using soap is an old wives tale. I really love cast iron ,I've had hers for 13 years and I have no complaints with it.

I have a little portable grill which great for cooking for one person. I cook there sausages for a hot dogs mostly. I was thinking about having sous vide and it is going to be a good thing. It seems that I'll do that this weekend)
