Rusty Crusty Cast Iron Bacon Review!
This morning, I made breakfast in the BSR Chef Skillet and tested out some bacon from my buddy AJ. He runs Rusty Crusty Cast Iron way down in south Texas. Everything came out great. The bacon did not taste like what you get in the store. It had great flavor, nice and crispy and cooks fast. I give it a 10/10!!

Unboxing - Lancaster #10 Skillet and #8 Dutch Oven. Today I got in two pieces from Lancaster I have been waiting for! I needed the 10 to complete my skillet set before they start adding helper handles. The Dutch oven was just too pretty to pass up. I love the raised numbers and the handles. I will definitely get a lot of use out of these pieces. #foryou #castiron #castironcookware #cookware #ca...

    Beautiful looking so far. It looks like the nice dark color around the handle and edges and the bronze color towards the center that I've seen it come in on their website. Guessing the smoother surface has a tougher time bonding to the seasoning, but still looking wonderful regardless. Did you use the oven method or Stove top method to season? Also what oil/fat did you use?

      That is a Turk Head pan at 00:56. The shape of the handles looks a lot like Griswold handles that I see on my cornstick pans and in the Griswold Muffin Pan book. But it may just be a similar or copied pan. Or unmarked pan. Can't tell without a good look at bottom. It looks a lot like their model 130 . But my copyright 1997 book says that pan is $$$$, so suspect it's not it! Griswold made their 6 and 12 cup pans similar to that one in the 1930s to 1950s per the book. I have two similar 6 cup pans I got off Etsy. I think one was a Lodge and one was a BSR. You might try Etsy as they tend to have more cast iron in restored condition vs Ebay.

      I did try using vinegar and it did help. It looks pretty good, but I have not used it as much lately.

    Spend $50 on a Lodge. And $150 on a shrink and a cooking class. Who spends this kind of money on pig iron?

    There's a skillet at 0:19 with small ears and just an X on the bottom. What is it? It must have been a large foundry because they are from Tennessee to Texas. I have two of em. I was thinking initial skillets had two letters? The wrought iron skillet at 0:22 was made in Saint Louis. I made up this big story about the settlers trading their heavy cast iron for a lighter skillets and my wife was impressed. I hated to tell her it was all crap.

      It is an initial skillet. What i found on then was a discussion over if the Foundry owner was illiterate and just used the X instead of initials. Not sure how valid that is, but that's the conclusion they came up with.

      The WIRCO is a pretty cool story in itself. The owner started out making his stoves and hollowware out of cast iron, but was getting too much breakage, so he changed to wrought iron since it is not as brittle. I have restored several, and the one thing that I have noticed is that most of them are pitted more than cast iron. Even one I found with 1/4" caked on oil was still pitted. They are great skillets, though.

      @@hawgwildcastiron2023 Thank you, I learned something. That is why I never get tired of cast iron there's always something to learn. I have a completely different skillet with two initials on the bottom and they are different on each skillet depending on who molded it. I would like to call this skillet a Blacklock but there's no proof. It has the outside heat ring fitting the skillets of the day. It's actually the one that got me started collecting. I should smash that thing into a million pieces. lol That makes it the most expensive skillet I own !

      @@hawgwildcastiron2023 I read where the wrought iron skillets were bad about warping. Mine isn't pitted but it is slightly warped. There's a way to repair a warped skillet. I've worked with metals my entire life and it bothered me that people say that can't be fixed. As it turned out repairing the bottom was never the problem, they were cracking as they cooled down. Now I do all my skillets on a turkey cooker set on hi. I don't let them cool unevenly. I cover them with a fire blanket and heat the crap out of em. When they are evenly heated they can start cooling down still under the fire blanket. I've never had one to bust like this and believe me I've busted a few. Practice with Asian pieces at first. Folks say that sounds like a lot of trouble. I think to myself, I'm not dealing with modern Lodge. I wanted to do it because they said it couldn't be done. Possibly ya can't get a guy with a metal shop to care about a skillet? Now we're getting somewhere! I guess my buddies are thinkin I've gone woke with all these pans. lol
