CATEGORY DESCRIPTION - PLEASE READ:

ssv3 said:
I'd like the next TD theme to be "Cast Iron" You are to make a dish using cast iron cookware, which can include a griddle, Dutch Oven, skillet, etc, as long as it's made of cast iron. You could cook on a cast iron dish on a grill, in a smoker, or even over an open fire. You could also grill on cast iron grates, you could put a cast iron dish in the smoker to absorb smoky goodness, as long as your dish features grilled/smoked foods.

You may submit entries that are cooked from Friday 5/7 through Monday 5/24.

Entry pictures must be submitted by Noon Central US Time on Monday 5/24.

Would that include carbon steel pans/griddles?

I'm guessing that should be OK, however, let's see what Sako has to say since he chose this Throwdown.

I don't see why not. Only difference is one has more carbon in it than the other but same components. Fire away guys! :biggrin1:

Does it have to be cooked on a grill/smoker/etc, or is any form of heat ok as long as it’s cooked in cast iron? Either way: It’s gonna be on like Donkey Kong!

So need a ruling: based on the above quote pan-fried is out?

ssv3 · May 7, 2021

Not at all.

Just put it on a gasser for example

Or charcoal grill. BTW Enameled DO is also game

Aggie12 · May 8, 2021

Figured that would be the case, but wanted to check. Love cooking in my cast iron; I gotta think of something good for this one!

To expand on Sako's response, rule #3 should clarify both questions:

[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]3. Entries must be grilled or smoked during the cooking process, or must prominently feature grilled or smoked ingredients which you prepared. Photos of your food on the grill or smoker are encouraged but not required (we love action shots). Using a gas grill is perfectly acceptable, unless a particular category requires the use of a wood or charcoal cooker. Additionally, other forms of wood or gas cooking are fine, which would include a wood fired fireplace (indoor or outdoor), a firepit(gas or wood fired), and other gas/propane powered cookers like pizza ovens, flat tops, and griddles.[/FONT][/FONT][/FONT]

Great looking plate Sako. What's in the bean salad? It looks interesting.

Moose · May 11, 2021

Smokie, I quoted Sako's post from page 1 in the event your query seemed out of sorts as we're now on page 2.
