Fer cryin out loud my wife used it to boil water on the woodstove yesterday
while the power was out.
The left it on the stove (not lit) overnight...
When I got to it this morning it had a coating of rust. The seasoning it'd
gained wasn't anywhere near enough. Had to scrub it with soap to get the rust
off.
Why not use a pot to boil water I asked, "I thought you wanted this to get used
so it would break in."
Oh well, back to square one, again...

Don't let soap touch that thing and it will last you for years. I'm
still
using a cast iron dutch oven that I bought in the late 70s or early 80s
at a
garage sale. It is my favorite method of cooking almost anything I
make.

I've been down this road before with a set of Lodge frying pans. Took me a few
years but they're real good now.
I don't remember if I sanded the pans but now that you mention it I might hit
this with a little sandpaper...
Interestingly when cooking the taco meat sticking wasn't a problem at all. I
was real surprised although I did it exactly right, got the pan hot and then
added the oil, turned down the heat and kept the meat moving...

I once bought a cheap piece of cast iron, couldn't season it enough
to make it stop sticking. Showed it to my mother, who pointed out
that it was still rough as cast, not milled smooth like every piece
of iron in her collection. So, either I attack it with auto body
tools or I find a real pancake griddle (Wearever, Regal, etc) at
a garage sale for less than I paid for my unfinished POS griddle.

No apologies necessary. I was surprised to learn that you are no longer
