Too much cast iron?

Boy that is a ton (pardon the pun ) of cast iron stuff Ryan!

I just ordered two 8" lodge skillets, so my collection is just starting.

You do know that your CI collection will become an item in your Will don’t you?

Isn't that one of the 10 mortal sins? "Do not covet they grandfather's/uncle's/ brother-in-law's CI collection"

I need to check on that...

Cool Toys! If the Sweet Aebleskiver is not your thing, look up a recipe for Japanese Takoyaki. It's a more savory batter filled with "Tako" Octopus, but any Seafood works as a filling...JJ

Yes I do! Right now I know my daughter would love it. My son has a couple pieces he likes but as a just turned 21 year old not high on the list lol!

Forgot to mention earlier, bought a new stove for my son so the old one is in my shop, just for baking cast iron, to keep it out of the house

Thanks for that! Looking forward to trying some of these ideas. Also got some really good ideas from Robert, @tx smoker now to just find the time. Flip to next page of the to do list!

One other reason that motivated me for this post was I found this pan in the cupboard, forgot we had it. It was a gift but never used it, looking for ideas of what to make in it.

Hard to tell how big each cup is? Make popovers, small brownie bites, weird shaped eggs, let your mind wonder. Good Luck

Do most of you grind off the sand texture in the newer cast Iron so it is smooth like the older stuff?

Very little of what we have was bought new, but if I did buy new I probably would sand it and reseason it.

This pan was given to us, didn't look bad but had a pretty rough texture so I sanded it and reseasoned it. Guess I didn't take any after photos but it turned out really good.
