There is a "Cast Iron Cooking for Dummies" book that has a lot of great tips and some recipes in it. We got it for my son for Christmas last year. It's got some interesting info on cast iron and the various manufacturers that used to be in business. It helped me understand that the old Griswold pan I inherited from my dad is truely an antique. In fact when I questioned my mother about it she told me that it was one that my dad had "on the farm when he was young". That means that it was actually my granddad's. Now it's even more precious as a family heirloom, and I still cook in it.

I have quite a collection of cast iron cookware and I use it almost daily for pancakes, bacon, chicken, chilli, baked beans, venison or pizza. I seasoned all of mine with canola oil and only use hot water and a plastic scouring pad to clean it. After it's completely dry, I just recoat it with canola oil. I season all of mine in the oven when the wife is at work(she don't like the smoke in the kitchen), but you could also season them outside on the gas grill if you have one.
I married a moonshiner's daughter and I love her still!
