How To CLEAN CAST IRON - After Cooking Bacon

How to clean cast iron after cooking bacon? That's today's video. Okay, so the bacon is cooking. The bacon grease is strained and poured up in the jar. But look what we have leftover. So I'm going to show you one simple trick to do this. Now, as you can see, we've cooked our bacon, we've strained our bacon grease, but we've got all of this burnt stuff in the skillet left behind. And, unfortunately, this skillet is cold. What ideally would have been the best thing to do was to clean this skillet when it was still hot. We could have taken it over and run hot water in it and cleaned it real easy. One simple trick and a tip that you need to remember is if you have hot cast iron, you need hot water. If you got cold cast iron, you can start out with some cold water and just pour that into your skillet. We've got the stove on, and so we'll begin to heat this water up and just start to scrape this with our wooden spatula. Look how easy that comes off, folks. So as you can see, what really happens in bacon. Bacon is real good. We all love bacon. Everybody loves bacon. Bacon makes everything better, and it even makes a cast-iron skillet better. At least the bacon grease does. But now bacon itself will burn and stick to the skillet. And that's what we have here. We've got bits and pieces of bacon that are burnt and stuck onto the skillet. And so what we have to do is clean this out. And you can do it simply with just a little bit of hot water. So what we're going to do now once we've got this heated up the water has released all of these burnt pieces of bacon, we're going to simply move over to the sink and clean the rest of this out. Okay, so we're over at the sink. We've got all this water heated up all these bacon particles have released. So all we need to do now is just basically take our stiff bristle brush, and we're just going to take and just lightly scrub the rest of these bacon particles out of here. And rinse that out like that. Then the next thing we're going to do naturally is we're going to take and just dry it out with a paper towel. And we would want to take and put it back on the stove and oil it and season it down like we normally do. And that's how to clean cast iron after cooking bacon, folks.
