Help me love my cast iron skillet
duckgeek:
We use it regularly for just about everything. When it is properly cared for it is probably the easiest pan in the house to keep clean. Never skimp on oil until it is really well seasoned.

Oooh yeah deep dish pizza in the cast iron pan. YUM!
I have a new pan to season, just need to get around to it...

I didn't know the secret to this until recently. Put slices of mozzarella on top of the dough to keep the sauce from soaking in before adding in the other layers of stuff. Makes a world of difference.
The Turtle Whisperer:
Not much you can do about the smoke and grease, but you can get it to not be a mess. Repeated use and heat and oil. Season again and keep using.
If the bottom is rough, consider getting an abrasive grinder for the drill and smooth it out.
Try the Alton Brown cast iron steak method. Lots of smoke, but worth it.

You can also use your outdoor grill to season if you don't want the smoke in the house.
