Well, shoot

I may have ruined my cast iron skillet.

I made a pork roast in the crock pot yesterday. First I seared it in the pan, like I do. Well, this morning, I looked at it and it still looked absolutely filthy. Hubby had cleaned it, so not sure why. I decided to try the thing where you put water in it and then boil the water to get all the gunk off. Well, I, uh, kinda forgot about it and it boiled dry. *facepalm*

I'm attempting to re-season it in the hopes that I just "cooked" all the seasoning off it. *fingers crossed*

I did not know the olive oil trick. Good to know for future cleanings. Thanks!

Olive oil is a better way to get goopy crap off most pots/pans, even the old fashions 'sticks like glue' pots!
