Love cast iron. At first I was very peculiar at seasoning all the time and watched youtube videos about that. Even bought flaxseed oil which supposedly is very good because of high smoke point. Was never 100% happy and stopped paying much attention to oiling it after every use. But over the years the skillet is finally on a level that it is the best pan we have to fry eggs even. Guess letting it just "break in" naturally by using it works the best, much like boar brushes .
