Cook the bacon this morning. Drain the grease (reserve, bacon grease holds up remarkably well in the fridge), and clean the pan with hot water. Use salt of you have any stuck-on bits. Pour a couple teasoons of fat in the pan and heat. Use a paper towel to smear a very thin layer of grease all over the inside of the pan. Take a clean paper towel and wipe down the inside to ensure you don't have excess oil. Pop the pan on a low burner or in the oven for 15 minutes or so.

And remember, never let it sit in water or leave it wet. It's remarkable how quickly cast iron can rust if left untreated.
