People, use good natural oils to season your cast iron.
Olive oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, walnut oil are so much better than artificial stuff. Yes, crisco and margarine are just as artifical as pam.
Natural oils make a better finish to your seasoning and don't stink up the house while the oven does it's thing.

Me too. Olive oil. The iron gets a smearing of it before it is put away. If I am using the iron for successive meals I may not even rinse if if it wipes clean. It is going to be too hot for anything nasty to survive before I start cooking...that's why we cook.
