If you bought it new, didn't it come pre-seasoned?

It says it did but I think this thread stated to season it yourself anyway before using.

It's why I need FMB in here!

Post 14 in this thread. My wife killed my seasoning on my favorite pan, staring over and that's what I've been doing.

Would recommend washing with soap and water first.

I feel your pain. Had house guests while we went out of town, and I forgot to hide the cast iron. Came home and they are looking like shit. Found one in the dish drainer. Looks like it has been washed. Recovery under way.

I've got three old Griswolds I got when my grandmother passed. I love those pans. The only thing that would make the largest better is if it was a 12-inch (it's only 10"). But it's beautifully seasoned.

I have Griswold and Wagners...biggest is a Griswold 16 Its a beast and worth a bunch to collectors. I have 4 dutch ovens, a couple hanging pots, and 5 or 6 other skillets and a chicken fryer that is an old Griswold.

Wife ended up buying a 12" cast iron today. Good choice I think

FMB, how does this raise my socioeconomic status?

At least 3-fold, I think (without checking my Cast Iron Effects on Socioeconomics handbook).

For realsies, my 12-inch is the workhorse of my kitchen. I adore it. Which is why I was practically devastated when the wife accidentally killed the seasoning.

The seasoning method I outlined above is pretty time consuming, but it's totally worth it, especially on a new or unseasoned pan.

If you haven't even done it before, try hamburgers on that sumbitch. I love hamburgers in my cast iron skillets. I love a thick, crunchy crust on a burger.

Get it good and hot. Remember that cast iron retains heat better than other pans, and also takes a bit longer to heat.

I love burgers with a crust so I will try that.

Here's my question then. If the pan gets hotter than normal pans, you'll obviously get a good sear but how do you finish cooking the burgers through without just burning the outside them?

I never have a problem with cooking them 100 percent in the pan, and I rarely ever go over medium high on my stovetop with the cast iron. With the iron's heat retention, you don't need to get it as hot (you can if all you're trying to do is a fast sear with something like sous vide). They end up darkly browned, but not burned.

Depending on the thickness of your burger and how you like them (I like steaks medium rare, but burgers need to be medium), I put a touch of oil in the pan and get it around 400 degrees (I used an IR thermometer from an auto shop so I don't have to guess). Then put the burgers in, give them a little smash with the back of a spatula to get really good surface contact with the burger and the pan, and don't touch it for 3 minutes. Flip and repeat. Then rest for 3-5 minutes and enjoy.

Mine are 5-6 ounce patties, and I've started going a little thicker with them so I can develop a better crust. I don't have my timing down 100 percent on them yet, so I'm still using my Thermapen to ensure temperature accuracy.

First, you should never use soap unless you're trying to strip the seasoning.

Second, you didn't dry it, did you? You must dry cast iron THOROUGHLY and IMMEDIATELY. If it was fresh rust, you very likely could have used a scrubber pad and scrubbed it clean.

Whenever I actually do a wash, I'll throw it in a hot oven or on the stovetop for 10 minutes to get any last it of remaining moisture.
