How do you go about cleaning this? I know you aren't supposed to use soap, but after many uses there is so much build up. Do you scrub it down then reseason it? Thanks.

While very hot, deglaze it under running water, then lightly scub. Wipe dry with a paper towel and heat it on the stove top to ensure proper drying....your done.

You can use soap. Modern dish soap is perfectly safe on cast iron.

ETA: Though a little fat and some salt is usually all you need.

I use one of those cast iron cleaning chains. Works well.

Put it in the oven on around 225-250. Let it get warmed up and then scrub with paper towels or steel wool. If there is build up you are using it wrong. After every use, while still warm, you will need to rinse it with hot water, wipe it out, and stick it either on the stove or back in the oven to dry. Maybe a light coat of oil if it needs it.
