Cast iron skillet--what am I doing wrong?
I've seasoned my pan(s) several times and the food still sticks. What am I missing. BTW---I'm cooking eggs (sunny side up) and chicken :) Thank you!!!

You can polish new cast iron yourself with sandpaper intended for use on metals--a pretty big job by hand but less so if you use an electric drill with a sanding disk. Just be aware that if you do that to a preseasoned piece like a Lodge Logic, you'll remove the preseasoning in the process.
Better, I think, to just buy old cast iron at a flea market or junk shop or on Craigslist or eBay.
