I found this Lodge 10” cast iron skillet in the trash.  It needed some work.  First I cleaned it up with a damp rag. Then I sanded what I could with a sander and finished with steel wool.  After a second wipe down with a damp rag, I heated it on the stove and added a layer of bacon grease.  A few days later while doing some baking, I put it in the oven and baked on the grease at 400.
