theyve been wrapped up in news paper thats now about the color of the background here on CA. At a quick glance, most of the stuff looks to just be dusty and maybe a tad dirty.

Scott..... If you get close to Birmingham, bring them with you, give them to me for a a week or so, and I'll clean them up and season them!

I love fooling with cast iron cookware. I have a lot of skillets from a small six inch up to a fourteen inch which I sit on my turkey fryer burner to use.

I have several Lodge skillets, but truthfully as much as I like Lodge these newer skillets can't hold a candle to the old stuff. Take a close look at the cooking surface of a new Lodge and you will find that it's pretty rough. My best performing skillets are old with completely smooth bottoms in them. I like them all though!

I have several dutch ovens too that I cook with on occasion. Something that all of my friends keep insisting I make is dutch oven pizza. It's pretty good but there are a lot of better things to make in a DO in my opinion.

I also have a waffle maker that I just picked up last spring... this thing is great and makes the most perfect waffles that I have ever seen. Never sticks... it just works great on my little camp stove. This one has the high rise that the maker sits in. It's probably five inches or more above the burner to the actual waffle iron. Oh yea, I dated that waffle iron and found that it was made between 1910 and 1922.

Cast Iron 12" skillet makes the best pineapple upside down cake you will ever eat. Melt some butter and brown sugar in the bottom, put in your pineapple slices (and cherries if ya want) then pour in batter and bake. Perfecto!

Oh yea, I love cast iron cook ware. I have 8" & 12" skillets at home that are always on the stove.

I also have two dutch ovens and a grill pan that I despise.

I just re-seasoned one of my dutch ovens last night and my 8" skillet.

I'm about to pick up some CI to use in my smoker for beans and such. I can't wait.
