How do yall clean them after cooking? I usually just use a wet paper towel. I have heard of some folks using soap and water.
Love these things.
For certain recipes there is nothing better.
T-Man nailed it, re-season as often as necessary if you scrub them hard.

I love searing a good steak in one, it smoked up the house so I started setting it on the top of the grill to do this. Almost black on the outside a still mooing on the inside.
Here are some of my cast-iron skillet's. They are all Griswold even the red ones the largest one I have is a number 12. Nothing better than cooking in a cast-iron skillet.
Geez Bergie.... Wouldn't want to be standing in that room if you ever had an earthquake hit. Doubt you are ever lacking a clean pan.
Yeah specially that number 10 been up there for a round 15 years. Highly unlikely to ever have an earthquake around here. Have to keep an eye on the wife when she using them might smacked me beside the head with one.
Gas grill, I assume ? How long do you pre-heat the pan, before you put in the steak, and do you grease the pan prior to heating ?
Oh heck, tell us exactly how do you do it ?
I use butter while the pan it still hot, then wipe out with paper towels, Still cooking with my grandmothers skillet.
Same here..or lard...like the kind that comes in a block, or any kind of fat that melts under heat....pretty easy overall...I dont get why on earth anybody would use a teflon pan...? Marketing I suppose...

Could not agree more, I even cook on the propane grill outside, don't like electric stove.
