That was not cast iron, was it?
That is what cast iron looks like if you strip it down to the bare metal. It's not actually ruined, but it will be unusable until someone goes through the process of re-seasoning it
Wouldn't even call it unusable as is.
I am pretty sure you could cook bacon or similarly fatty stuff in there right away.
Then again there are people that see cooking bacon as a legitimate form of seasoning a pan.
If my cooking senses are right, it would be like cooking bacon in a stainless steel pan, which is sticky and burny but not impossible
No, they're right cooking bacon is a way people season cast iron! You have to cook a lot of it though, and it's really not the best way to do it lol
But it’s the tastiest way to do it!
you really oughtta season your stainless steel too, then you likely won't have such issues.
I mean, you can. But bacon will pretty angrily stick to a naked pan like that.
