    A couple years ago helping my widowed neighbor clean out her garage and amongst many things she passed on to me was a couple smaller cast iron pans... They were rusty and I didn't think much of them but I felt I'd get around to them some day... So some day was today haha.


    Use a small wire brush on a drill to clean up the majority of the rust.

    After a wash with soap and water it still appears to need something more.

    A small potato and salt actually makes a great scrubber! Haha! I used Kosher salt then table salt to get in the tiny places!

    Looks ready to be re-seasoned.

    Rather than fire up the oven inside the house on a 90F + day.. I fired up the gasser and turned both knobs to low and let the grill get to like 375-380.

    The pan was rubbed down with bacon fat that I reheated slightly to make a liquid and poured over the pan and rubbed in.

    An hour in the grill, and just turned the burners off to let it cool down.

    Edited to add finished picture! Looks ready to use to me!

    Looks good. Now cook some greasy food on the stovetop with it, to finish curing that seasoning!

    Ok.. trying to keep this in the right thread this time...haha

    I need some advice. I moved on to pan #2 and I've gotten it as clean as I can... But is it good enough?

    If not.. I need more ideas. If it's acceptable, then it's going on the grill to get seasoned.

    What I started with

    I make my dough the night before, little bit of oil, and hot crushed chilies in the bottom of the pan. Brush some good butter, real butter on the outside crust, top with whatever, place in a smoking hot oven, keep an eye on it, remove, pizza will slide right out of the skillet onto a cutting board, grab a couple of slices, a cold drink and meet pizza heaven. Good luck.

    No, I might add that I use a small coating of cornmeal in the pan, it helps it from sticking.

    I set my oven to 450 degrees for about 5 minutes, lower the heat to 350 and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes. Keep an eye on the crust. I have a very good oven, you will know more about how your oven cooks. Good luck.
