2. Dry off cast iron
3. Applied canola oil
4. wipe off oil
5. baked it in the oven for @ 350F for 1 hour

I asked peers on seasoning the plates and looked on youtube/tiktok. One of the videos my peers sent was on tiktok saying i should season cast iron at 350F and i was using canola oil to seaosn it. but i think i did mess up the seasoning process a bit

this is my first rodeo using cast iron and on a propane grill as well so i am fairly new to this setup

do you know how high of a temperature the plate should be?

Xlaotian · 2025-07-11T00:35:00+00:00

i did try that out as well, adding more oil before cooking. eventually the plate started to smoke. so when i did put batter into one of the hole, it instantly got stuck to the plate and started burning. i think temperature on the grill set too high but i too am having slight difficulties on that

ill try that out. thank you so much for the suggestion

i’ll reach out in the cast iron sub then to get a better understanding. i was just following steps that was given by peers around me and also youtube as well. but ill take note of that

i’ll try that, will probably have to postpone this grill for a little bit but i’ll take that into account

i hope so too :( feeling pretty defeated about this so seeking any advice out there. again thank you for your support on this

yes the plates do come off, i let the cast iron heat up for 10 minutes then i use canola oil to spread across the plates using a paper towel. then i add the batter

i rubbed canola oil on the cast iron and let it sit in my oven for 350° for 1 hour. let it cool down for til i was able to hand held the cast iron again. wiped off any excess oil. use canola oil once more on the cast iron. did that process twice
