Louisiana culture, cooked different. Outdoors • Cast Iron • Real Life
There are two kinds of people…
The ones who politely slice a skillet cookie…
…and the ones who grab a spoon and eat it straight out of the pan. 😅🍪
Brown butter, melty chocolate, toasted pecans, crispy edges, gooey center, and a little flaky salt on top. It doesn’t get much better than that.

This Wagner #8 got me started, but every cast iron collector has that one skillet that never leaves the stove.
Maybe it’s an old Griswold that’s smooth as glass…
Maybe it’s your grandparent’s Lodge…
Or maybe it’s just the one that cooks everything perfectly.
What’s your daily user skillet?

Bonus points if you’ve got a picture of it in the comments!

🍪 Cast iron skillet cookie debate… let’s settle this.
I went with pecans, mini marshmallows, and a drizzle of caramel on this one… but I’m convinced there are some wild combinations I’m missing.
So tell me…
👇 What toppings BELONG on a cast iron skillet cookie?
Ice cream? Hot fudge? Honey? Bacon? Peanut butter? Flaky salt? Fresh berries? Something completely unhinged?
Drop your dream combo in the comments. The best one might end up in my next skillet. 🔥🍪🤠

One of the biggest myths in cast iron is that you can’t use it on a glass-top stove.
The truth? You absolutely can.
You just need to treat both your skillet and your stove with a little more care.
✅ Lift it—don’t slide it.
✅ Make sure the bottom of the skillet is clean and free of burrs.
✅ Let it heat up gradually instead of cranking it to high.
✅ Avoid dropping it on the glass (your stove definitely won’t win that fight).
I’ve cooked on glass-top stoves with cast iron plenty of times without an issue.

One of the easiest ways to estimate the age of a vintage cast iron skillet is by looking at the bottom.
Older skillets often have a heat ring, which was designed for wood-burning stoves. As kitchens evolved to electric and gas ranges, many manufacturers transitioned to flat-bottom skillets.
Both styles cook great, but collectors definitely have their favorites.
Personally, I appreciate the history behind a good heat ring… but there’s just something about a perfectly smooth flat-bottom skillet.
Which one are you choosing—heat ring or flat bottom? Tell me why in the comments! 👇

The story behind the BSR cornbread skillet is almost as good as the cornbread it makes. 🌽🔥
While I restore this classic piece of cast iron, I’m sharing how Birmingham Stove & Range helped turn a simple pan into one of the most recognizable cornbread skillets ever made.
Some cast iron tells a story…
This one tells Southern history.
