Larbee Puck Cast Iron and Carbon Steel Seasoning - Family Made in USA - The Cast Iron Seasoning Oil & Conditioner Preferred by the Experts

FABULOUS Cast Iron seasoning results! A little really DOES go a long way. We restore vintage Cast Iron. We had a couple of pieces that were difficult due prior damage, and one that had SIGNIFICANT heat damage. The Dutch Oven that had such horrible heat damage had even started to peel layers of Iron. We agreed to give it ONE shot to season. I had had really good success with Larbee Swipe on my problematic Iron Mountain Skillet. So we decided to season my "new" Erie Dutch Oven with the Swipe. Looking at the sad pitiful Birmingham Stove & Range Dutch Oven with it's pits and peeling iron, we decided to go ahead and give Larbee a chance to prove itself and that poor dutch oven a chance to cook again. Round one was pretty amazing. Round two and we decided that the BSR dutch oven might have a chance. Round three found a solid seasoning. Given that the iron was peeling... we went for round four, and had one REALLY UGLY but REALLY SEASONED BSR dutch oven. Mom cooked chili as the second item in that dutch oven and the seasoning is holding up beautifully! Even against chili! Admittedly, the fire/heat damage is so extensive that the exterior seasoning will never be normal. But with that much damage? That it took ANY seasoning is amazing. On a side note, my Erie #10 Dutch Oven and lid seasoned beautifully and has a gorgeous gleam of fabulous black cast iron! I would recommend Larbee to anyone! It does NOT take much. We prefer to season no higher that 375°F and generally season at 350°F for at least one hour. As long as you pull it out of the oven after the first 10 minutes and wipe it down really well (like you're polishing a classic car) then return it to the oven and bake for an hour, you will have a beautiful silky seasoning on your cast iron! If you are new to seasoning iron, this is a VERY EASY to use seasoning! If you are an old hat at seasoning, you will fall in love with the results! Hesitant to try a seasoning blend? I would say, try it. Even as a lark. Because you WILL become addicted to the reults! We certainly did! (and to think, I swore I would never use a blend....) Larbee and Crisbee will become a staple of our restoration shop and at any of our sales.

I have recently begun to get more into using carbon steel and cast iron pans for my cooking. Safer and less potentially toxic surface chemicals to leach into my food is a big plus. Love the fact that you can create a truly non-stick surface with some very simple elements. Bought this to help me with my Matfer Bourgeat pan, which I bought here on Amazon, become non-stick (love, love!). I was having troubles getting it to be non-stick, and this product helped solve the problem. Plus, I've been able to use it on all the cast iron pans I had, but infrequently used because of sticking problems, and they now are wonderfully non-stick and used everyday. It's a great product to help you build the foundation seasoning with in short order, then help maintain it in the long run. I do use alternating layers of either flaxseed oil or grapeseed oil, just to not rely on one product. That's in addition to the cooking what I'm doing. Highly recommend. I like the puck version better than the stick version. While it may be counterintuitive, the puck version is easier for me to use, and it uses less packaging, which is better for the environment overall. Worth having in any seasoned cookware maintenance aresenal.

I like this product for maintaining our cast iron. This order was for a single puck @ $12.95. Our last order was December 2019 for two pucks @ $19.95. Not a huge difference but not as good a buy. I’ll start looking elsewhere for a better price before automatically reordering from Amazon.

First time have this product. I am professional chef my self.I am start to use Lodge cast iron skillet/dutch oven. I am trying LARBEE PUCK product to season my new skillet/dutch oven and result is better then canola/vegetable/olive oil/grapeseed oil. Those all the oil i use in cast iron is still sticky after use. Then i switch to LARBEE PUCK not stickiness at all. and result is very smooth finish.when i received my new cast iron skillet/dutch oven. i wash my skillet/dutch oven with cast iron soap (which is sell in Amazon) then follow the all instruction which is written on LARBEE PUCK direction how to season cast iron skillet/dutch oven. Don't skip it. it is 3 step consume time but when you done first time then restore is easy. Result is fantastic i like puck look hockey puck i use just little. use lint free cloth. i bought lint free dish cloth $4.55 18 pack very cheap in walmart you can find Amazon also. TAKE CARE YOUR SKILLET /DUTCH OVEN give some love and you get nice result when you cook. "HAPPY CHEF HAPPY COOKING"

Easy to apply and will last you a very long time. I'd suggest using a dedicated cloth or rag and store the rag in a ziplock to get the most out of it. Dries well and not to greasy like regular cooking oil. Seasoning is more even and doesn't create pool spots as easily. I'm a customer for life now.

I've been using Larbee for a few years now, and won't use anything else on my cast iron. It leaves a nice satin sheen on my pans. Love it!

To condition my cast iron pots, I did 3 cycles of warming, coating, and baking in the oven, and cooling. After following the proceedure/ instructions on how to condition the cast iron pots, I tested by frying up eggs. Sunny side up, Over easy, scrambled with cheese, no problems at all. No sticking. Now, I love using my cast iron pots. Easy cleanup too.

I'm relatively new to the whole re-seasoning process with cast iron, but this product seems to work well. Just not too sure how long the tin will last! I feel like I would get more bang for my buck out of Crisco. Regardless, it worked as advertised so I'm a happy customer.
