What are you using the clean Cast Iron Skillets?

[rockchalk06]

Great Grandma taught me to keep some coarse salt in the pantry with some paper towels. Use it to clean the skillet right after cooking. No water or scrub brush unless it really bad then re-season.

There a better way that ya'll use or know of?

I usually just use the rough side of a sponge and hot water. I’ve used coarse salt with paper towels/sponge too. Then wipe a thin coat of oil in it for tomorrow.

Sponge/dish rag & hot water

Kosher salt and a “chain mail” scrubber. That is, if it I can get the wife to clean it when finished.

My 9" skillet is now to the point that nothing sticks, but it took a good many years to get it there. Back when it use to I would use a wood spatula to " scrape" stuff out. Salt always seemed to require re-seasoning when I scrubbed with it.

I just use hot water and a clean dish rag if it won’t just wipe out. I’ll use my bare hand it it needs serious scrubbing.

I just wash it out with hot water. Paper towel dry. Back on the heat to finish drying. Cover in light coat of oil and let it cool.

I’ve cooked a lot of Kent’s recipes and I use his cleaning method.

Oh sure! The classic ‘appeal to authority’ move.

Cowboy Kent knows best, he’s cooked on a lot of hunts and ranches
