Help seasoning De Buyer Mineral B pan
My story....
I have been using cast iron for over 20 years....no problems seasoning and keeping them clean. A few years ago (yes years) there was a "hot deal" for these pans so I bought two.
I have never been able to season them....ever. What I get is a ugly orange coating that looks lumpy that everything sticks to and comes off after the first use. I have tried both stove top and in the oven. Upside down, right side up, inside out....you name it. Different oils every time with the same ugly results. Flax, grapeseed, avocado.
I have removed and re-seasoned these 4 times. The third time I gave up and put them away for a year. So I tried again the past few days with the exact same results!
I am very close to just giving them away so someone else can benefit from my ignorance, but for the life of me I have watched and read so many different ways to do this and I always get the same results.
Has anyone else experienced this?
