X2. That's the Alaskan Way!

It scrubs off anything without ruining the seasoning. Paper towel dry, then a light coat of cooking oil before putting away. I too try to keep my rig weight down while traveling, only bring my Lodge cast iron griddle.
I have 14 inch, a 10 inch and 6 inch cast iron fry pans. A Panni Pan and a Dutch Oven. Fully Equipped and weighed down!!

Got my attention. How do you make naan on these and does it taste like real Indian naan? Probably too much carbs, but I love naan.

I guess my family has been doing it wrong for over a hundred years, making cornbread, caramel dumplings and pancakes in a cast iron skillet must have shortened my ancestors lives but I doubt it since they all lived til 80+. You never heard of people who ate food prepared in cast iron being iron deficient. Just like a old time doctor prescribing a nail stuck in an apple overnight for extra iron in your diet. And sorghum syrup tastes a whole lot better when boiled down into molasses in a cast iron kettle.

I have several inherited iron skillets. I have 2 in our camper. I cook tomato based sauces in them all the time and it’s not a problem.

I'm a young 73, but I remember everyone using cast iron pans and even spiders when I was growing up. I think the chef is either really young or doesn't understand how to season the pans.
