Can I use vegetable oil to season cast iron? Yes — but there are a few things you need to understand before you do. In this video, I explain smoke point, oil stability, and the most common seasoning mistake that causes sticky or flaking cast iron. This question comes up all the time, especially with beginners who are seasoning a cast iron skillet for the first time. The truth is, cast iron doesn’t really care what oil you use — but how you apply it and how hot you get the pan makes all the difference. I break down what actually happens when oil is heated, why smoke point matters during cast iron seasoning, and why using too much oil causes more problems than the oil choice itself. #mrcastiron #castironseasoning #castiron #castironskillet #castironcooking Got a story that could help someone else get their health back?I interview real people with real results — doctors, BBQ folks, everyday people, anyone who turned their life around with meat-based eating or simple cooking.If that’s you, grab a spot on my show:https://calendly.com/mike-mrcastiron/60min Become a Fire Starter Member & Support the Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwOSnIXPiyHp2sN-C8OsHBA/join.
