Before & after
I brought home my late grandmother’s cast iron a while back and was finally able to restore it. My grandparents raised me so this pan cooked so many of my meals growing up. Lots of chicken fried steak and fried everything!
I cried the day I finished. I love it & the memories it holds so much and have told all family I’m the only one allowed to cook with it moving forward because I’m so afraid someone will drop it :-)
I used the oven cleaner method and it took about three rounds of sitting in the Texas heat to strip all the build up.
