My fiancee went paleo a couple months ago to help nail down a food allergy and liked it so much she's not only sticking with it but I jumped on board as well. (Want to drop about 30 more lbs to look good on all those wedding album photos!) ;)

I have cast iron on two of my grills and use a lot of CI cookware, too. I've usually used peanut oil for seasoning but peanuts are a paleo no-no. Coconut oil is heavily pushed by paleo practitioners as a very healthy oil that has a lot of benefits, which got me wondering if anyone had tried it for cast iron seasoning and to what degree of success?
