Cast Iron Seasoning
Posted on 3/2/12 at 11:29 am

I ordered an 8 quart cast iron pot a few months ago that was preseasoned. Cooked a few jambalayas and other things and food started sticking pretty badly. Began wondering how well they actually seasoned it and decided to reseason it using the method described here. The finish came out great, cooked another pot of jambalaya with it, hand washed it and put it on low heat on the burner to dry it like i normally do. The next day it showed rust beginning to form on the inside. Pisses me off knowing how much time i put into seasoning it and I'm wondering if I can just bring it somewhere to get it re-seasoned because I don't feel like going through the process again. TIA

rust isn't gonna just come through the shite you cook on top of it?

It may or may not. There was a pretty good thread on here a few weeks ago on cleaning and reseasoning. You should be able to heat and then get appropriate sanding wheel to knock off rust then fry something and you should be good to go.

never put it up without rubbing a fine layer of cooking oil over the inside and wiping all residue off with a paper towel.
Are you cooking tomoto sauce in it. Tomatoes are rough in one and osme folks use tomatoes in their Jambo.

Not sure why you'd need to put the pot over heat to dry it...Why not just use a paper towel or towel? I always do this and mine is great. I also spray it with a little pam and use a paper towel to work that into the finish, before putting it up.

OP, scrub it good and deep fry a few things in it. It will be fine then...and better in few years....and awesome in 20.
