A place to grow your relationship with God

I bought this pan at the Family Dollar. It is a 12-inch skillet. It cost $12.

It said on the packaging that it was pre-seasoned. By the grayish color, I knew that it was nowhere near seasoned enough.

After 1 time in the oven

This looks better, but it still needs more seasoning.

After 2nd time in the oven

This looks better. It still could use a bit more seasoning.  However,  I want to use it to make pancakes. Also,  using the pan will help to season it.

Pancakes stuck to the pan.

The 1st pancakes stuck to the pan a little bit. I removed the pancakes and added a little bit more cooking oil.  The next pancakes did better.

The Pancakes still turned out good.

The pan still needs a bit more seasoning.  It is a little bit of a thin pan, which means it is lighter than my other cast iron pans. That’s why I bought it. The cast iron pans I have are getting a little bit heavy for daily use, but cast iron is still the best thing to cook for in.

Overall, I am happy with the pan. As time goes on it will get better. Here is a skillet that my dad used and now I use. It is a 10-inch skillet that is seasoned well.
