My first Cast Iron

[SMOKE FREAK]

I have coconut, olive, canola and avocado oils here. Which of those would work better?

The thing with the flax oil is it's a low heat oil...Pretty much unsuitable for cooking...But when exposed to high heat it polymerizes or some other scientific sort of thing and makes the hardest seasoning that you can get...After that I use Canola oil for seasoning after each cook...

As stated...do your research...Lots of info out there...And lots of info that contradicts what you thought you just learned...So many approaches to get to the same results...
The bottom line is cook with it...Season it...And cook some more...In time you will have a pan that you will wonder how you ever lived without...

I had one failed bean cook that was completely my fault and not the cast irons but I refuse to accept reality. I now use a rectangular metal pan and it's working really well for beans.

Good enough reason as any! Thanks for the reply!
