Cast Iron rehab


 
It's pitting I think. Supposedly. its caused by sulfuric acid fumes from burning coal on a stove or impurities in natural gas back in the day. It still sits flat because of the heat ring and it's a great cooking pan. My wife picked it up at an antique store for nothing. It's not super collectible, but I like it.

I've got the same thing on my old Victor. I think it's pretty cool and adds to the historical charm, in my opinon.

I use my big Lodge Chicken Fry pan right in my Genesis. When I make..............................you guessed it......FRIED CHICKEN :D I take out the grates, put a good amount of oil in it, and keep the pan right down on the flavorizer bars. Heat control and distribution in the pan is excellent. If I spill or splash any oil. MEH it's in the grill and contained. I also can do it on the Wolf grill as well. But there I leave it right on the grates as heat output on the Wolf is so great.
I have thought about that. I would think that an outdoor propane standalone burner would be better for frying. More efficient directly over the flame and if I had one I would move it to the middle of my lawn so nothing to get messy and clean up. Maybe in the future some time.
