who cooks for my dear wife. This subject affects both sides.

We are an equal homestead. My sons took over the cooking duties in their respective households both are well trained cooks.

He cans his fresh produce, makes jams and jellies. All I have to do is mention. I know have a container of Peach butter.
Better than Apple..His wife is a food scientist. She made chick pea salad and a trifle Monday, loaded with fruits.

I just ate.

And I'm a guy.

You've got some good looking skillets there. 🤗

Their surface was smooth as silk. I asked my mother where she got them and she recalled Montgomery Ward. Mine are from Lodge and the seasoning gets pitted, but they do work like a charm.

The bottom of the pan is never smooth and impossible to clean. I am going to try just one of the ceramic to see how they are.

Just out of curiosity.

I have several, one was in the scrap metal pile at our transfer station perfect ratio of mass without being too heavy. Cast is all I use unless I am boiling pasta water.

My most used is my 14" cast wok.

It was the longest lasting and most used wedding present that she received.

Nothing. There MAY have been numbers stamped on the bottom. I can't recall. If I didn't have my own set I would have taken them after my parents passed. They went to one of my grabby sisters.

good job!

Yes I said cows, put them on stupid already and let it go!!!!!!!!!!

so this should piss off absolutely everyone!

lol

Then again, he "allegedly" puts his penis into couch cushions,
which most people would also think to be a 'bad thing'


((Hey, I know it was just a meme----
but most people think that he probably DID, regardless!))

hahahahaha

that might have been the only way he could have consensual sex as a teenager.

And it would REALLY piss off my boyfriend! 😉

Or maybe I should say chef. And he's very serious about his cooking and his cooking tools.

My guy does almost all of the cooking and he LOVES his cast iron! If I ever washed one with soap I think he'd leave me with the skillets in tow, lol.

wash them any way I want and they are still perfect. My mom washed hers with soap for 70 years. I have to keep telling him to back off. They are my skillets and they are great.

Carefully seasoned over the years…then cast iron death.

Real men don’t do any domestic chores.

There's something seriously wrong in the head of this ignoramus.

owns several homes but none of them are mobile,
never used the "outside fridge" in winter for drinks (I steal jobs from racist idiots and I grew up using the outside fridge as a brown Appalachian-American)
doesn't know how to snap and string beans
spread margarine on his biscuits
has actual cookies in the Royal Dansk tin at his house

There's tons more online if you google JD Vance memes

I saw the My cousin Vinnie movie.
The Prosecutor asked an older woman if she was cooking instandt grits....
She really laid into him in the court room.

Vinny also used the singular grit as if it's a thing.

I'm not convinced there are cookies inside. I don't remember ever eating those cookies but we had the tins somehow, filled with sewing supplies and other small items. And so did everyone else's mom. It's good to reuse things instead of tossing in garbage.

. . . of how or when the cookies get eaten. But the tins serve humankind proudly.

Wait! I just thought of another Vance/Walz comparison!

Vance is the cookies; Walz is the tin.

Thanks to Ms. Calvin for prepping our sewing supplies containers!

Vance would probably put his Henckels cutlery in the dishwasher, except that he doesn't own any knives (just guns).

SECOND mortal sin!

Heathen devil. May Satan call him home.

Next up aspirin and knees?

My days of shaking my raw chicken in a bag of flour seasoned with pepper and salt and frying said chicken in Crisco were over; I had to give it up when I moved North. I also had to give up eating boiled okra (slime and all) as it nauseated my husband. And no to black eyed peas on New Years day for good luck.

You just can't put a properly seasoned cast iron skillet in a dishwasher, it defeats the whole purpose of seasoning it in the first place!

They tell me fried okra is delicious, I never tried to find out after my MIL DESCRIBED IT.

In Southern Ohio I ate mangoes until I went to Tennessee, found out they were sweet. Now I eat green peppers.

I lived in Dallas but went to visit my aunt and uncle in Brownwood every summer. My uncle just spoiled me rotten and did I love it!

(for people not raised by Southerners, this is a sin. You cook with bacon grease. Use it to season pinto beans, and green beans, make corn bread with it, and so on. As well as cooking your eggs in it.)

Seems to both be tougher than veggie shortening or canola type oil and it cooks better with little or no sticking.

And yes, eggs, beans, cornbread, green beans, etc all get a little help from bacon drippings. I even make gravy with it.

This generation cooks them 4 minutes. They are raw.

LOL at that. Good one K&R.

but no dishwasher....

However, I recall reading advice about never putting your cast-iron skillet in the dishwasher
(although I don't recall the reason)

Looks like a lodge plenty of metal on them, if pitted a metal flap wheel in a angle grinder will polish it smooth.

Season with canola oil.

And if you do don't use boiled it has driers in it that are toxic.

What a moran. What a couchf*cker. Ain't he tired of holding rallies in pastures and second-hand appliance store parking lots yet?

to make cornbread.. Anyone so stupid as to put a cast iron skillet in the dishwasher.. should have their drivers license revoked.. they do not have good decision making skills and are a danger to others..
