If you want non-stick free, you either have to buy a really expensive commercial waffle iron or buy a stove top cast iron. I don't know why they use non-stick on waffle irons. You almost never wash them with soap and water, so the seasoning just gets better and better. The opposite of non-stick, which only works at first, and old school teflon types are just poisonous to boot.
I've noticed that virtually every home-use waffle maker has some kind of non-stick coating. Like you say, you often have to go commercial if you want to get rid of the coating. Expensive, but maybe worth it if you're going to making waffles frequently.
@@KitchenHacksCooking If you are feeling very adventurous, you can treat/soak your old toxic PFAS type teflon waffle iron plates in lye (drain cleaner) and remove the teflon. Its a messy, toxic operation tho. Aluminum actually takes oil seasoning very well and with a little work and a can of non-stick oil spray you will get a nice renewable non-stick coating that works well with oil because it is oil. You rarely wash waffle irons, anyway. I had an old pre-teflon era, circa approximately 1970, General Electric waffle iron with aluminum plates that had never been non-stick coated. I had repaired it many times. It worked awesome, but it got accidentally thrown out because I left it on the porch to cool and stink-off and it looked like greasy hell. I bought cast iron stove top for replacement.
