Thank you for having a video labeled "How to clean cast iron" and having it ACTUALLY BE ABOUT CLEANING AFTER USE! every other video I tried was about reseasoning and restoring. thank you for giving me what was advertised.

Straight to the point, no milking extra time for YouTube. Love it.

I love that you showed the whole process right in the intro and then broke it down into more detail afterwards. Very helpful for those in a hurry and this method works very well. Thank you.

Been doing things this way for YEARS and it works beautifully. Good tip is to have a dedicated cast iron scour pad that doesn't ever get dish soap in it. It really is this easy folks. Don't let the cast iron snobs bog you down with their fluff.

Me, watching this eating my steak, runs over to my kitchen

This was a fantastic, no frills, how to video! One thing I’d like to mention for those that don’t have time to clean your iron immediately after cooking (which I usually don’t because I’m always finishing up a few other side dishes), is that you can always heat it up again later to melt the fat to pour it off and finish the rest of the cleaning steps. I have 2 irons at the back of my stove right now (skillet and a griddle), which I will be warming up to finish cleaning in the morning. 😁

I’ve had a large cast-iron pan for about 27 years. It is without a doubt the best pan that I’ve ever owned

Thank you for keeping this short and simple. Just what I wanted and needed. How to correctly clean my cast iron pan. No history of the cast iron pans, which chefs use cast iron, what I can cook in the pan, etc, etc. Just “How to clean…” Many thanks! 👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Finally a cast iron maintenance tutorial that tells it like it is. Thanks . . so often one reads that all that needs to be done is a simple wipe down . . which is never the case unless the pan is used for making flapjacks at the chuckwagon only.

Thank you. I was soaking my 6.5 “ Dutch Baby crust off the bottom of the pan in cold water. My daughter noticed and said, “I don’t think you are suppose to put cast iron skillets in water.” You came to the rescue with your carefully made video. I think I saved it.

Love this. One of the first "care for cast iron" videos I've seen that covers an important point.
Clean it immediately.
It's super easy to do and takes less time than this video did to watch.
Your dinner won't get cold in the amount of time it takes you to clean one of these pans.
If you only have one skillet in your kitchen, it should be cast iron. They aren't nearly as much effort as people think they are if you care for them properly.

I just want to say I love the format of this video. You show how to clean it in the first 30 seconds with a bit more explanation for those who want a more detailed instructions. Quick, informative, and well structured. Thanks for your help!

I have been using my same cast iron fry pan for over 30 years. After cooking I take a small veggy brush and use hot water to loosen food right away. No soap. Season the way you do and completely dry it out. Mine is like using teflon pan. Nothing seems to stick. Love my skillet

[melangreathouse]

There are obviously “ tons” of videos on how to treat and care for cast iron cookware. However, THIS ONE explained concisely “ how to get the job done”. I like your personality, which made me engage in the process. Happy 2020! And THANK YOU!🇺🇸🥇💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💥💥💥💥💥🎯

[TheSarahLindy]

SO many people need this. Thank you for sharing! These pans should last many lifetimes ❤️

[dngarcia]

So freakin helpful! I was under the impression that I had to season it (using the oven) each time! This was much more simple! Thank you!

[skylerburtphotos]

Re-seasoning mine tonight, I will be using salt from now on! 🤘

[anithompson]

Yooo I just tried this after my first time using a cast iron skillet. You were right on. It was clean in under 5 mins. Thank you!

I like this a lot. Shorter platform is great to watch. Would be great for you to do a bunch of techniques in this shorter format (different techniques for cutting onions, how to supreme citrus, toasting spices, sharpening / honing a blade, importance of mis en place, why bringing meat to room temp, difference between carbon steel/stainless steel blades, chiffonade herbs, compare different types of salt and their effect on foods (kosher vs pickling, for example), showing smoke point of different fats and danger of burning, how to mellow onions by letting sit in cold water) as a few examples.
