3 tips for seasoning any piece of castiron cookware you own.

How you doing today? Good i hope.


So you wanna learn how to season your cast iron cookware, whelp your in the right place.

As im sure you already know, cast iron cookware has the potential to last a life-time.. IF and only if your able to take care of it properly.



Im the owner of several pieces of cast iron cookware including my pride and joy lol (my lodge logic 5-quart double dutch oven and casserole with skillet cover).

Below are tips to help you season any piece of cast iron cookware you own.



*1 Coat the inside of your cast iron cookware with cooking oil-


This is an important part of the seasoning process for your iron cookware.

What i like to do is pour a small amount of oil in my iron cookware.

Next i take a piece of paper towel and wipe the inside of my iron kitchen ware until the oil is covering the entire inside of the pot.



*2 Place your iron cookware inside of a 400 degree oven-


Place your iron pot inside a 400 degree pre heated oven for about 1 hour.

Now if your more of an out doors type, you can also perform this task on your grill.



Just prepair a fire in your charcoal grill or gas grill as you normally would.

Season your iron pot or pan and place upside down on cooking grate for one hour.




*3 Clean your iron pot and your finished-


Please be careful while removing your pot from your oven or grill (i have burned myself so dont make the same mistakes as me).

I find its best to use a cold, wet, thick rag to remove your iron cookware from either the oven or grill (especially from the grill lol).



TIP: You can also just wait until the coals have died out before removing your iron cookware.

Allow it time to cool of before you clean. Just take a rag and remove the excess oil (if any) and ash from the inside of your iron pot.



Thats its, your finished.

You see how simple it is to season cast iron cookware?


Please keep in mind that every time after im done using any piece of iron cookware, i always coat the inside with oil before storing no matter if im placing it heat or not.

I hope i have been of help to you my friend. Enjoy and have a wonderful day. Oh by the way, check out the reviews at Amazon.com for the lodge logic 5-quart double dutch oven and casserole with skillet cover.
