- Tonight is the first Wednesday of the month, and tonight on UA-cam Live we’ll be having our monthly AMA(A) (Asm Me Anything - Almost) discussion of cast iron! And that includes the bounty and loot seen and acquired last weekend at the National Cornbread Festival. But not only is it the first Wednesday of the month…it’s the first of May - May Day and the night of Walpurgisnacht, as it’s celebrated by many folks. And tonight on UA-cam Live, we’ll be celebrating May Day by having fun with our cast iron cookware. What’s more, in addition to discussing any topic related to cast iron, I’ll be unveiling and using two new items…the Lodge “Year of the Dragon” skillet, and the new Lodge cornbread mix. So come over to UA-cam Live tonight at 8:00 PM Eastern Standard Time for cast iron…and cornbread!

Great find on that vintage Lodge lid! Thanks for sharing!!
Wahoo!!!
Great night!!! I so glad your trip was wonderfull. I learned alot about places I have never been before. I love your new cast iron. Sorry about the corn bread.
That handle could have been placed in the sand prior to pouring the cast iron into the mold. I have done some aluminum casting and I doubt that you could remove the sand from on top of the casting while still molten to insert the handle.
Trying it fin and Lodge hammer skillet on their website if you could help that would be great
Do you know when Lodge stop making the pig head mold pan
I found your channel while attempting to identify my skillet.
My mother gave it to me. She said my grandmother gave it to her and my daddy as a wedding gift. It was my grandmother's personal skillet as she was poor and had no money for a gift. I was born 1969 and they were married in the 50s.
It's says A B & I on the handle .
On the inside of the lid is No 10
Was hoping you might have knowledge of this skillet
AB&I is a USA-based foundry that's still in business today. They manufacture pipes, plumbing, and other parts. They made a few pans during the 1970s to 1980s, but not many. That may suggest your grandmother misremembered that pan, or perhaps she received a different one at her wedding. I'm certainly not trying to argue or criticize; I'm only stating what I know. Pans from AB&I are considered rare and are prized by collectors, though I'm not suggesting you sell yours.
I won't be a spoiler but I enjoyed the humanity of the whole night.
Lodge is trying to create a situation where someone can put their pans to good use even if they struggle to boil water. A beginner.
As a skillet gets more seasoned and a cook gets more experience bacon grease becomes the first choice
If a final casting looks like it was assembled as it's being poured or as it's cooling what you're really seeing is how the mold is assembled before pouring.
The mold is absolutely complete before the pour and then it's cooled dramatically before demolding. The handle seems added afterwards because of the way the sections of the mold were put together.
