The thing is I want to avoid buying the smaller one only to then realize I need a bigger one and buy a second one. My kitchen storage space is limited, especially for heavy items like that.
Don't worry, you'll end up buying more than one anyway. :getin:

You mean the "put bacon in a pan on the range turned up to high until it's charcoal" technique isn't the best way to make bacon?

It never ceases to amaze me that the idea that "bacon shouldn't be cooked at as high of a temperature as literally possible" blows people's minds.

If your cast iron pan is not cracked into pieces it is a good cast iron pan.
Literally the first time I used it :saddowns: :

with a cookie sheet you can put the bacon on a cooling rack, with thick slices of bread underneath

It looks like the crack goes all the way through the wall of the pot, so I'd try boiling some water in it first just to make sure it doesn't leak (too badly).

Neat little pot, though.

I can fix the seasoning no problem, but how the hell do I get the cigarette smoke out of it?
I suspect the smoke smell is in the seasoning, so if you completely strip that, the stink should go away.

Personally I think you should give it a scraped surface, take it to a Richard King scraping class :v:
It would be worth the $2000 for the class just to see his reaction.

I've cooked a million tomato sauce based things in my cast iron pans and never had a problem. My pebbly surfaced Lodge pans have also become smooth over time. I think the answer is always just cook more bacon.
