CLEANING

:

1.  When cool, wash your cast iron thoroughly with a non-citrus based soap and water. 

Be sure to rinse and dry completely. (Note: Soap can remove the seasoning of your 

cast iron if you don’t restore it after cleaning.)

MAINTAIN SEASONING:

2.  After each use, apply a small amount of Camp Chef Cast Iron Conditioner, and thinly 

coat all surfaces of the cast iron. Over time, this will make your cast iron black, 

creating a finish called a “patina.” This enhances your cast iron by creating a glass-

like finish, giving it a non-stick surface. Additional seasoning ideas can be found 

online at: www.campchef.com.  

Store your cookware in a dry, clean area with a light coating of Cast Iron Conditioner. 

Your cast iron will be ready for use the next time you retrieve it. Avoid any locations 

with widely fluctuating temperature conditions. If your cast iron becomes rusty, soak 

the area in cola to remove the rust and then re-season.

SEASONING:

1. Saturate a clean cloth rag with Camp Chef Cast Iron Conditioner. Coat all surfaces of 

the cast iron. Place grates in the barbecue grill box and place the box on your outdoor 

cooker. Heat to 375° - 400°F. Cookware will smoke as the seasoning bakes. As smoking 

begins to slow remove from heat. Use or let cool and store. This process can also be 

done in your home oven. 

NOTE:

 Do not place the grates directly over the burners of your 

outdoor cooker. Placing the grates directly over the burners could result in cracked or 

broken cast iron.

COOKING TIPS

Wash cast iron in hot water and dry thoroughly. Wipe cooking surface with cooking oil 

to help prevent sticking. Frozen food should be completely thawed before cooking. Use 

naturally lean meats and poultry. Trim excess fat from all meat, this will reduce flare-ups. 

If flare-ups occur, use lid to assist in putting the flame out by simply replacing it on the 

grill. Use tongs or spatula instead of a fork or knife when turning meats. Some of the 

meats juices will be lost if pierced. Marinating meats for several hours will break down 

the cellular structure generally tenderizing and flavoring the meat and will also reduce 

cooking time. 

OPTION:

 Instead of long hours of marinating use a marinade injector kit 

and fill the meat instantly full of flavor. Injector kits can be found at most grocery stores 

or kitchen supply stores.

SMOKE TIPS

To obtain a “smoke” flavor, use wood chips or chunks such as hickory, mesquite, 

apple or cherry wood. Any fruit or nut tree wood may be used for flavoring. Do not use 

resinous woods such as pine, they produce an unpleasant taste. Soak wood chips in 

water according to directions for flavor smoking. Soaking the chips will cause them to 

smoke for a longer period of time rather than burning up quickly.

PLACE WOOD CHIPS UNDER THE CAST IRON COOKING GRATE.

The amount of chips used will determine how intense or subtle the flavor will be. Smoke 

cooked food may still look a little pink when fully cooked. Close attention is advised to 

prevent over-cooking.
