WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY CAST IRON I followed Adam rageusicunts instructions and now my pan is fucked what should I do? Is it because I used olive oil? This is the first time seasoning it in about a year and a half

Cast iron is the best way to Cook Meats and certain breads because of it's awesome heat distribution and ability to hold heat, every piece of cookware has its Job in the kitchen you just have to learn to apply it

Cast iron is objectively shite at distribution, heat retention is the only thing it's good at.

I'm not denying that but for it to be a selling point, other cookwares should be bad in that department and I don't think I've had issues in that regard.

im not sure why copper is listed on this you can't Sear or anything with it, It's really only useful for very specific low temp cooking lol , anyhow I've used Cast iron Long as i can remember and it's always served my purposes very well, Maybe a difference between Gas and electric burners though, Which these are clearly on an electric coil dont get me wrong i use regular Sandwiched Pans for everyday cooking i'm just saying Cast iron is useful for specific tasks

You still want to do the exact same to teflon and stainless if you can.
Improves the cooking ability of the pan, and its lifetime.

No, it is less than 400F. So you have more than a 100 degree temperature difference between the center and outside.

STOP RIGHT NOW.
Don’t listen to anybody else’s shitty advice. Here’s what you need to do:
If you have a self cleaning oven run it in a cycle for 2-3 hours. It will strip all the olive oil and rust off the pan. If any corrosion is left, you can scrub lightly with a piece of steel wool. Trust me, this works every single time and a based nigger who has a cast iron collection recommended it to me.
Now, seasoning.
Get crisco. Nothing else. Use a shop towel (the blue kind you find in the automotive section) to apply it.
Heat your oven to 200 degrees and let the pan warm up for 10 minutes. This will allow the shortening to melt into the metal. Rub the pan down with a decent amount of crisco until you’ve hit all of it enough to shine. Take a clean shop towel and rub it down until all the surface oil has been removed. Wear gloves when you’re doing this so you don’t burn yourself you idiot. Turn your oven up to 350 and let the pan bake for 10 minutes. Take it out with gloves you idiot and clean all the excess oil off again. Now crank the fucker to 450 and let it sit face down for 3 hours. When it’s done turn the oven off and let it cool to room temp. Do this whole seasoning process one or two more times and you will have a cast iron season that would make even the snootiest cookware faggots blush.
Trust me, I know whet I’m talking about.

yeah
I mean it's only natural, if cast iron is better at heat retention that means the heat isn't spreading out as far, so the parts away from the flames don't get heated as much. An electric stove would work better with it.
