There is a bit of the old "Catch 22" in play. I had a similar problem with a Lodge Combo Cooker. The food sticks and so the pan had to be scrubbed clean. But after the pan is scrubbed clean, guess what? The food sticks again. It is a viscous cycle.
I oiled/greased my pan like everyone says. BUT, then I also used non-stick aluminum foil on my pan so the food would not stick. Eventually the so-called patina formed on the pan and I could stop using the foil. Give it try. It can't hurt.
