I just purchased my first cast iron skillet. I'm so excited to try it out. What are some good things to prepare in a cast iron skillet? TIA for any and all ideas!

Cornbread- We used to have one "dedicated" to cornbread- Great for frying chicken- My Dad used to fry salt pork or slab bacon, onions, garlic then add canned tomatoes and corn and okra! good stuff! sometimes he sub'd lima beans for the okra...

Start with bacon, this is a good way to get the seasoning process started. I use mine for frittatas, german pancakes and cornbread. Also good for coffee cake too........

Anything you would ever cook in a non-stick skillet and more!

Be sure to season your new skillet before using it and follow the care instructions for cast iron so it will give you years of use, and only get better as it ages.

We make great cornbread, a variety of chicken recipes, hamburgers, spaghetti sauce, eggs, and yesterday we make an unbelievable pineapple upside down cake. Go to the Lodge Cast Iron cookware website homepage (www.lodgemfg.com), click on "Recipes", and you'll see a screen full of indoor and outdoor recipes. On the website you'll also see information on how to clean, store and use cast iron cookware. We have it and we love it.

Some are pre-seasoned, which is a good idea, I'm guessing. Haven't bought new, so I'm just guessing.
