Thrift Score: Mystery $8 Cast Iron Pan
Vložit

- I found a cast iron pan CAKED in carbon for $8 at the local Savers. Is it a good pan? Or is it trash? Watch and find out as I give it a full restoration! #castironskillet
PS: I am fully aware that the England t-shirt is a vexillological nightmare. That is why I love it.
Some of my favorite cast iron accessories.

PPS: Spoiler. Pan is a nice Griswold.
Update 2021: Flaxseed oil flakes off and is trash. Don't listen to the internet.
I used Flax for a while. Its too expensive and doesn't last the best. Much better alternatives
Haha 😆 flaxseed only has a smoking point of about 220 degrees so anything beyond is just burning the oil. Try Grapeseed which has about a 420 degree smoking point or avocado oil which is 500 degrees, albeit expensive.
I'm buying a 10" Ozark trail cast iron skillet today. $8. And bacon to season it with. Subbed.
good ole crisco is the best I've found. 250 for 15 minutes to heat it up, slather it in cirsco and leave it until it completely cools gels on the stove top. Takes like 30-60 minutes. Then wipe ALL the crisco off. 250F again for 15 minutes. Now take the pans out and wipe more oil off. 500F upside down for at least 1 hour. Thicker pans might take 90 minutes. Repeat 3 times
@@desiriemendez Flaxseed has the highest ALA which is for the polymerization at high heat. It's science. You want it above the smoking point so the lower the better. It's the ALA content that gives you the seasoining. If flaxseed isn't working for you, you're doing it wrong.
Other brain: "Wait a minute, you don't know SHIT"
Me: "Oh yeah good point"
Too relatable.
Cleaning cast iron in a self cleaning oven is a good way to warp or crack the cast iron from the extremely high heat. Plus it's very dangerous because if your oven catches on fire because of the burning seasoning there is no way to put it out because the door is locked.
What method would you recommend
@@shawndoyle6460 A lye bath is really good for removing old seasoning, but not rust. A vinegar/water solution will take off the rust, but not old seasoning. Electrolysis will remove both and is much quicker, but requires quite a bit more of an initial investment.
@@shawndoyle6460I have seen people soak them in vinegar for a couple days. They come out clean as new and just need reseasoned.
Last one I did I just wire wheeled it clean.
@@shawndoyle6460 Depends on how bad the rust is. I just restored my Dad's ERIE griddle, that is now my griddle. I soaked it in a vinegar solution for about an hour, then scrubbed it with a pad. Repeated again and rust was gone. It was likely just flash rust. Just finished six coats of flaxseed oil seasoning, heating up to 500, then an hour to bake, then shut off and cool down for 2 hours, then warm up and repeat. Looks awesome. I've done the same with new Lodge. Flaxseed has a low smoking point but that is immaterial for seasoning. You're not cooking, you want polymerization. and for that you want a high ALA content and flaxseed is higher than anything else.
Could you put it say over a camp fire to burn it off ?
Might want to look into to a lye tank, that heat is not good for the pan or oven, but nice video awesome find!
Used salt and a half cut potatoe to cleaned inside the skillet. Works wonders.
Nice pan, good find ,, be careful with some older thinner walled pans, in an oven on cleaning cycle can get too hot and warp or crack your pans. Good Vid.
I admit it, I bit. You got me. I was thinking Wow what model of GoPro can withstand 500f ? I was totally freaking out and amazed. Good one.
BTY... nice score on the skillet & great job on the refurb. No grinders or wire wheels needed, just a little elbow grease.
We use clarified butter, it tastes wonderful and gives the pan a beautiful color. Nice find, I just got a Griswold number 10 with the matching lid at a yard sale for 20.00 ! I was so excited and he had 25.00 on it and I asked if he would take 20! People have a very hard time ever finding lids they are priceless. By the way you can save your bacon grease and use that also it works just as good. Happy hunting.
Happy to hear you use flaxseed oil. Yes, I did catch that loosy goosey, but so happy for you. A Griswold for $8! Uh, you are using a fish spatula. I like your music.
Loved the video. Like Tarantino meets Robin Williams in the kitchen, but no one brought the Adderall.
Always fun to find a treasure!
ERIE PA . IS ABOUT 45 MILES FROM . wow wow . i collect pan too . when i was over the road truck driver i was in lakeland fl. i went to a household sale and found 5 pans nested together 4 abot 8 dollars . the person in charge had to verfiy that it was and i got them here in my kitchen now i got total of 7 .!! the 5 pans were 10 in on down . my biggest on that i ve had for years is 20 .
Those crusty carbonized pans are the most fun to clean. Unraveling a mystery.
The PANdemic joke aged like a fine wine given the past year
Your #4 is quite a rare size. The #5 was a great find at that price!
I knew right away by the groove! I have exact one.
I actually cheered at 4:31, then the cleanup was super satisfying to watch. awesome video
This is old, but so did I!
Great find and a good size!
PSA: Using the oven to clean pans is not the best method. You can warp old vintage skillets by doing this way. for one pan use yellow top oven cleaner.
impressive content K. Praslowicz. I killed that thumbs up on your video. Keep on up the excellent work.
I'm calling the cops about that murder
Old cast iron skillet are not marked. Just number liked number 7 or 8.
This is a good and nice video. Thank you algorithm.
Very cool effect
Great job.
Awesome great job
One more thing turn off heat before your done cast iron holds heat well once you flipped omelette you could turn off stove and it'll continue to cook
Him: I have a mystery pan, here!
Me: Going by that handle, that could very well be a Griswold....
I think I might have a problem. Are there any 12 step programs for cast iron addiction?
I got a 10 5/8 BSR for $2 at the thrift store. It was in pretty rough shape and needed wire wheeled and reseaaoned. But it’s one of my better cast iron pans now.
A BSR isn’t nearly as collectible as some...but for $2 it was a steal.
BSR is my favorite!
Use grape seed oil it has high smoke point and is great for seasoning. It's smoke point is 420 you want to go 50 degrees above smoke point
I have a #6 Grizwald I found in a dumpster
dude, you rock
Awesome!!
Nice score
Nice plate
Subscribed as soon as you said clean this f*cker up
Tht pan well seasoning!
How was your GoPro able to withstand the heat in the oven?
(Shadrach, Meshack, Abednego?)
Oh God I'm such a wise crack!
What did you use to season the pan?
How do you prevent the flax seed oil from flaking off? I did exactly what you did to my pan (I did 5 trips in the oven at 500F), however, I get black flakes that seem to "peel off" the pan.
I don't have an answer for you. Haven't experienced this yet.
You warm the cleaned, stripped pan in the oven, but not so warm you can't handle it. Apply a really thin coat of flaxseed oil with a clean cotton cloth, not a paper towel, then put it in the oven and then crank it up as high as it will go. I can do mine to 550 but as close to 500 F. When it reaches temp leave it for an hour. Then shut the oven off and don't open the door. Let it cool down for at least 2 hours. Then take it out and let it cool completely. Then warm it up and start the process again. Six times. It is the high ALA content of the flaxseed oil at high heat that provides the polymerization for the seasoning. Smoke point has to do with cooking. You don't want to eat anything made with oil that is smoking as that releases free radicals. But they are all burned off in the process of seasoning so smoke point is immaterial, except for the smell. It is the ALA content that is needed and Flaxseed oil has the highest. But you have to do it properly. Don't put it on too thick and be patient and take your time.
What song?
I was wondering the same thing. I found "Dance, dance, dance" by Frankie Yancovich, but not this version.
I use Crisco...good for biscuits too...lol. new sub here because of your whitty wit...lol
Welcome aboard. I'll try to keep things interesting. :)
@@clickroach Look, Know you are looking for subscribers, so am I and I don't monetize... you have the actual humor that I like...so keep it up...I mean that...!
@@ManLand stop typing with so many periods. Old people always do that. It’s so annoying
@@leo88802 bee annoyed because I am old...lol
@@ManLand I’m annoyed because you don’t know how to type
It’s all in the wrist.
Oh NO! NEVER use metal tools on cast iron. You’ll void the manufacturer’s warranty. Lmao. Hey, live on the ledge! Use em if you got em!
Oh no! my warranty!
Great video. Nothing like a grungy grimy chunk of mystery brand iron to revitalize and discover a gem to add to your heap of molded omelet makers!
Yummmmm
Joy!
The banging pans together gets on my fucking nerves bro.
Hello relative states away that I've never met
Lmao that’s crazy
Smart shopper you r
🤣👍
I don't want it you can have too many pierogi's for me.
