I've moved to cast iron and I really like using it. One thing that I can not make correctly is scrambled eggs. They don't stick bad but they do stick. I use a good amount of bacon grease in the pan when making them but I must be doing something wrong.
Any tips?
I gave up trying to make scrambled eggs in a cast iron skillet. A non-stick pan is much better.

cast iron? Yeah, I have some. This is just the outdoor set. There is a whole different inside set, along with the enameled cast iron Dutch ovens, skillets, pots and pans............... ![[Linked Image]](http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1605/13747104/24744888/413740243.jpg)

When I use mine, I keep it "clean" using a steel turner and scrape under whatever is cooking to keep the surface clean. The problem I have is when my wife uses it and she doesn't do anything but cook and walk away. Pisses me off.

Indeed. This was before Thanksgiving when winter came early to north Idaho. Brunch with friends. That's a nice one EdM! We started out with a mint condition Home Comfort stove, but it was stolen in '79.  The top on the one we have now is badly pitted and a bit warped, but it worked fine for this past Thanksgiving turkey! YUM! ![[Linked Image]](https://s13.postimg.org/p2nz82jlz/IMG_3655.jpg) That kitchen is beyond cool. Thanks guys, it's a special place to me. A lot of family memories from the past half century there! Is that a propane light fixture I see? Yes it is Sam. No electric service there (but it's wired & we have a generator, mainly to run the well pump). We use gas lights to keep from running the generator a lot

Sure would like to see a review on this if you get the chance. Did you buy pre-seasoned?

Bearcat, eat them eggs sunny side up, they way they's sposed t'be et!  Geno PS, joking here, I'd go with the method suggested of letting them get cooked at least halfway thru before mixing up alot. PPS but.......... lookin' at ya is really the proper way to eat them cackleberries.
