My "China"

...okay, so it's not China...but it is more valuable to me than any set of dishes could be. My cast iron collection not only looks nice, but it is useful and well-used. One of these days Bob is going to build me a "china cabinet" for my treasures. That is if we ever get done with the other dozen projects already started!

We use these in the oven, on the stove, on the grill, and in the pit. There's not much you can't do with a good piece of iron, and these have proven their worth time after time.

I have 8 skillets including a tiny 2" ashtray. I don't use the largest one (18") often, but it does make a nice replacement for a wok. The 4" makes a fine scrambled egg sandwich the perfect size for a slice of bread. Properly seasoned, these skillets are more stick-resistant than teflon without the health hazards. They can be used over an open fire or on your kitchen stove. They can be used as a deep fryer or to bake bread. You just can't beat a good iron collection!
