To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
- you must use a cast iron skillet ✓
- you must cook an egg on the skillet, and it must be able to slide around ✓

To show you've completed this Badge Bit, you must provide:
Youtube link below - a ten second long video showing the egg sliding around the pan

Egg slide at 1:55

Attachment 1 - pics (or video) of the pan cleanup
Photos of clean up are attached

Blessing, Catherine the Grateful

Note: Good job getting the egg to slide! For long-term care of your cast iron, you shouldn't need to use soap on to clean it, especially if you are using it a lot.

Okay, honesty time, this took me 3 tries before I figured it out.
The first two times I was impatient and as soon as the egg hit the pan I tried to move it around. It made a mess 😆
So, I guess the third time is the charm

Edited to add link to video. It didn’t work the first time.

Note: It's sometimes the case that BBs need to be done multiple times to get it right! Well done!

I fried an egg with a little bit of bacon grease. My first egg does "slide" when pushed but I broke the yolk 😭 (I was going for sunny-side down) so as I was sliding some was leaking out and trying to cook. Still nonstick when cooked, though.

I cooked more, including one that was hard-cooked (the things I do for a pep badge bit!) and you can see that one sliding much better.
