The dutch oven was a wedding present and the skillet I bought at an estate sale because I'm an old man.

Whats the best estate sale locating strategy? I want to hit them up but it seems to largely be just driving around on a Saturday and getting lucky.

My BBQ is cast iron and I sometimes use a cast iron pan to cook on a fire. But thats outside man. Im not bringing an inconvenient bullshit hunk of metal into my modern kitchen. The marginal improvement in taste is not worth the inconvenience.

I cook bacon and eggs in the morning in a zombie like trance using either stone or teflon pan on a glass stove indoors in 5 minutes and then sit down to eat with my girlfriend while, get this, a robot washes my dishes.

Im already on second base while you retards are performing the cast iron cleaning ritual while hummimg a polish folk song you learned off your grandma.

All of the extra care I hear about that makes people not want cast iron baffles me. It's like hearing "I won't own a car made in the year 1998 because it will spontaneously combust if you don't rub the paint down with bull semen once a month".

It's not any more special than any other cookware, but gently caress, all you have to do is cook in it.

I'm abusive to my pans so I'd go through a non-stick pan like every 2 years and that seemed wasteful and expensive. Clean up is a touch more work with my cast iron but I've never had problems with things tasting like previous things.

To continue the car analogy, why would anyone buy a stick over an automatic transmission these days for daily use?

Just watch. Here come the retard goons who will argue why stick is actually easier and so much better, and how everyone else is so wrong.

do you see a scratch?

throw your non-stick pan in the garbage because it's broken

stainless steel is indestructible but everything sticks to it. carbon steel is indestructible but it's exactly as much of a pain in the rear end to maintain as cast iron.

Antiques Roadshow is one of my favorite shows but the idea of keeping that kind of poo poo in your home just because it holds value just smacks of somebody who is insecure who needs to brag about something, much like the cast iron pan people.

Generally no sauce but sometimes A1 or gravy.

e: funniest thing in this thread is how the cast iron people keep reducing the time and effort required to clean and maintain it on every page.
