11 months agoSand the crap out of any new pan can make a ‘meh’ pan into a ‘muah’ pan. A lot of them aren’t nearly as smooth as they could/should be. We bought a cheap one that was quite bumpy, sanding down was a night and day difference.
I had a lodge that I didn’t do anything but cook on, didn’t have any issues. The ex got that one. Had an old crappy one that I couldn’t get to non stick the way my lodge did, then I sanded and seasoned it well before next use. By far my favorite pan years later.
It’s kinda funny just how strong folks’ opinions are on this.
