I took my cast iron camping and it got left under the kitchen pop-up during a rainstorm, so it's a bit rusty. I need to figure out how to strip and reseason it (and my pie irons ๐ค). Need to figure out how to season without using an oven (gives migraines) or a gas grill (don't have one)
Edit: oven is electric, no issues when using the oven for anything else, so it's probably not the oven or ventilation.
Wait, how does an oven give migraines? Legitimately curious
Edit: I forgot Americans have inferior electricity and often use gas ovens at home lol
They probably don't have an exhaust vent in their kitchen
That's not it, we have no issues any other time cooking, just when doing cast iron.
But cast iron is iron. It doesn't smoke.
Oil makes smoke. You can use oil on steel, that is not an issue for you?
No, but I'm also not bringing oil to its smoke point when I'm doing normal cooking.
So the problem is oil smoke... Seems like ventilation would help with that
