    I got a Solaire gas grill, and Lodge cast iron is the *_only thing_* that can take take that head. I’ve heard of a brand called GreenPan, but why switch when you have it so good? I’m purging all the non-iron out of my collection.

    @DullBullet Thanks! I did, and I ended up buying a nice Lodge 12″ pre-seasoned cast iron skillet from Dick’s Sporting Goods for $24.99. I’m VERY impressed with it. Thanks again for recommending it!

    In my quest to find a good, quality cast iron skillet made in USA (not China!), I did some research, and found that Lodge Manufacturing makes their cast iron skillets right here in Tennessee, USA. I bought myself a nice 12″ pre-seasoned skillet from Dick’s Sporting Goods for $24.99 + tax. I’m VERY impressed with it, and can’t wait to cook my first steak in it ! Thanks to JoeZcookingtips1 for posting this video!

  8. @remyblack2009 …
    @remyblack2009 Depends on if it is rusted or just caked up crud. If it is rusted, just take steel wool and scrub it or mix equal parts oil and coarse salt and scrub with that. You can also use a drill with a wire brush attached. That will remove caked up crud and rust.
    You can also remove caked up crud by burning it off in a fire.

    @JoeZcookingtips1 I agree – I have special pans for certain things – but as far as frying eggs, meat, they are unmatchable. Also they are great for cornbreads and course puff pancakes. Just love them. I just received some old pieces and I know the way to keep them seasoned – but how do I clean up old pieces and start over??? HELP!

    Before anyone tries …
    Before anyone tries this recipe you should have a vent for your stove, it makes a lot of smoke! I made a new york strip in this manner last night and my girlfriend said it was the best steak she had ever had, and I agreed. I reduced the time in the oven by fifteen seconds on each side because I like my steak really bloody. It filled my whole house with smoke so be prepared for this. I don’t have a vent but its so worth it! We just opened all the windows and retreated to the living room to eat!

  19. After what he said …
    After what he said about table salt prevention of goiters, I had to google “goiter”. Lets just say that I’m gonna stick to table salt

    great video….man I learn something new everyday… I used to be proud when I was finished cooking and cut the meat open and the juice would just FLOW out….hahahaha

    I love Alton Brown! And I love how he says, at the end, he doesn’t eat steak everyday but three times a week is not bad and now he realizes and has a rule: Red meat once a week only!

  22. you have to …
    you have to remember that there will be smoke, you should have a ventilation system. a lower temp will do it, but it will take longer and you would have a steak more medium than medium rare. you could also use an oil with a higher smoke point if the smoke bother you that much

    Tried this out, simply the best steak I ever made!
