Quite the difference that three short days can make! I've never even had to use a non pre-seasoned pan before, let alone all of this! That in mind I am legitimately surprised at how well this worked. Eggs were already sliding on this thing better than any cast iron I've owned!

I could have been a good bit more thorough with the scrubbing if I had some power tools for the job. But, after many hours of hard and dirty work (and a good bit of white vinegar), I'm proud to welcome a new member to the family!

Nah you should be good. Just make sure you preheat it!

Also, fun fact that not everyone knows: you can use most dish soaps on cast iron skillets! Old lye-based detergents that would eat through the seasoning layer were not good. But modern dish soap generally is not harmful to the seasoning! You just gotta dry it via heat and seal with a thing layer of oil when you're done :)

Yeah! It's all I have since I live in a super small apartment, but it seems to work great as long as you can get it to fit!Baking was for ~an hour each layer btw! And you can count making a pan of cornbread as an additional step to the seasoning process
