Cast Iron Love & Giveaway

A good cast iron skillet is essential piece of kitchen equipment. I use mine daily, usually more than once. Mine also belonged to my dad so cooking with it adds a sense of connection to him, now that he is gone. So here are my top 5 reasons to cook with a cast iron pan!

#5 – It’s uber trendy. I mean cast iron is every where on homesteading, prepper and foodie blogs. It is cool to be cast iron. 😉

#4 – Save your soap. Cast iron pans should never be cleaned with soap. Soap can ruin a cast iron “seasoning”. Hot water and a clean scrubie is all you need.

#3 – Naturally non-stick. Forget toxic layers of stuff in your pan (that your husband will inevitably scub out anyway)! The cast iron pan is seasoned with grease or oil before its first use and then after each cleaning. I haven’t found a non-stick pan that can beat it.

#2 – Even cooking. The cast iron distributes heat evenly, browns like a champ and all the food gets COOKED!

#1 – It takes the heat. Use it stove top, in the oven and even on the grill. A good cast iron pan can stand the heat.

Bonus – It is economical. Cast iron is going to cost you an arm and a leg and will last a generation…maybe more.
