OOoooohh AAAaahh. Oh. It ain't fireworks. But I get just as excited! I have a stovetop DO and #8 skillet from Mom, and a Wagner #8 I got at Brass Armadillo. But what I need...no, NEED is a griddle like that and a STINKIN' GAS STOVE. My DW kept telling me I'd get used to the confounded electric POS, but I grew up w/electric. 13 years in this house. 20 years in Phoenix. (No gas stoves where I've lived...), and even if this stupid crappy avocado stove weren't 40 years old and a piece of JUNK I'd still hate it.
I know. "Don't hold back, now. Tell us how you really feel..."
Sorry. Didn't mean to rant. I'll go back and express Cast Iron envy and complement your beautiful seasoning job.
Wow. What beautiful CI. Got it seasoned to perfection! Bet you can cook fried over medium eggs on that beaut of a griddle!
Do you do crepes? I cook Yorkshire puddings in my 8s. You might know them as popovers, just in one pan instead of muffin tins.
OK, I'm about typed out. If you all contribute to the "buy dave supplies and meat" charity, I'll go smoke food and stay away from the computer!
