Looks fantastic and healthy too. I must get a smaller cast iron pan like that. All I have is a 12 and a smaller size would be perfect for mushrooms like that.

@HoosierKettle  Start checking antique stores and flea markets.  Mine is a #3 Wagner Ware from the 1930's.  I have 2 and I didnt pay more than $5 for either of them.  Go vintage as they usually have a machined smooth surface.  Here is my #3 after I cleaned and seasoned it.

Yup. You nailed that meal!!

And yes, we have a collection of older, smooth surfaced CI cookware, all gathered from flea markets and antique shops. Love cooking with them.
Multiple kettles and WSM's. I am not a collector, just a gatherer... and a sick bastard.

That is an absolutely beautiful piece of hardware.

It sounds counter intuitive, but I actually like the surface of inexpensive new lodge cast iron. I prefer it to one I sanded down.

The lodge cast iron has a "pebbled" surface that is very non stick once seasoned properly. It is different than the surface of Asian made rough cast iron that I have used imo.

With that said, I have never used any nice vintage cast iron. I looked for awhile but gave up looking.
