  • Xia already gave you the quoted explanation for why you’re wrong, but everyone should watch the movie They Live, at least once. It’s a riot of a movie.

    Fun fact: the Southpark episode “cripple fight” with that long ass fight between Timmy and Jimmy, their fight scene is a near blow for blow reenactment of a fight scene in They Live, between Rowdy Roddy Piper and Keith David.









  • Good ones that have been cut smooth will cost you double or more than a lodge.

    You can sand and grind a lodge down to be a lot smoother and then season it up and you can get there. Or even just season a lodge a whole bunch of times amd you can make it smooth.

    Otherwise, there’s a lot of cast irons that are smooth right out of the box, such as BackCountry Iron and Finex.

    Just be careful of a lot of cheaper brands advertising “lighter weight” as a feature. It isn’t. Them being heavy as hell is a large part of what makes cast iron skillets cook so nicely. The iron doesn’t cool off when you put the food in. Lighter weight means it’s easier for them to make, uses less raw materials they have to buy, and costs less to ship.
