It sears the crap out of stuff and elevates even the most boring hamburger meat. That is all.

So did you slice into the steak before cooking? Never tried that.

Just leave it in the pan and put a piece of wood down and eat it straight out the pan. Then make some white mushroom sauce to dip toasted bread in it. It's the most manly/amazing meal you can have.

I think it has to be some sort of finishing butter.

Then your cast iron is not seasoned properly

Probably. The pans are about 30-50 years old.

Good refurbish steps can be found here . There really is nothing better than a proper cast iron skillet :)

PROTIP: For the final seasoning in step 4, use bacon grease. Perfect breakfast skillet.

Well, they're not that bad, they just taste sort of metallic. I guess 'garbage' was too strong of a word.

Ah, metallic is something you can't really get away from with cast iron I guess :|

I couldn't live without my cast iron. Lodge Logic stuff is cheap, durable, and cooks as well as anything else I've used.

WORD. I picked up a nice lodge cast iron pan for like 5 bux at a thrift store. I love it! I also found some emeril legasse cast iron grill pan that is dopeness for grilling inside SEAR LINES!!! Also got it at a thrift store. I also have a huge cast iron pizza pan that is amazing for homemade pizza. Let that sucker heat up in the oven and its great. Lastly I have a enameled iron dutch oven which is also amaze for stews and braising. Can you tell I like cast iron!? Don't know why I rambled on but oh wells.
