CI Storage Question

We have a couple cast iron skillets we are going to start carrying in the trailer (recently seasoned- now need to do some cooking on them!!!), along with two of the Camp Chef pro griddles for our 2 burner explorer stove.

How are you fellow members transporting/ storing your ci like this to prevent damage to the seasoning??? I have considered the camp chef storage bags for the griddles, maybe set them next to the outdoor fridge vertically in the small space that's there? Rubbermaid tub/tote large enough an wrap the ci loosely with towels? Not sure where to store the tub though other than the floor by the door....

TY!!!!
  • I usually travel with a camp DO, a skillet and a waffle iron.. They each go in different compartments so they don't bang on each other. In the rare case that I bring two skillets, I nest them with a dish towel in between. I have some nice vintage stuff and never had an issue.
  • We put our DOs under the dinette seat in their own plastic milk crates and layer a section of newspaper between the pot and its lid. The CI fry pan travels in the oven below the stove.
