Great question! It's a process called polymerization, and it binds the source of fat (in this case, my cast iron seasoning which is a blend of different oils) to the cooking surface. Over time it creates a nonstick layer that both seasons your food while you cook and also prevents it from sticking.
That thing looks wild! I've never seen one before. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it
I have that same jacket.
Whats the purpose of seasoning a grill like that?
