Good deal. Your Lodge pieces can end up being family heirlooms as well, I have lots of Lodge pieces and a few other brands that will be passed down. Don't let the cast iron snobs fool you.  I say that more as I’m going to use the lodge inside the Kamado Joe and it will probably get used much more often and spend a fair amount of time outside so it certainly won’t be babied. I tend to buy quality stuff and then use the heck out of it. But the finex stuff sure is good looking with their spring handle.

Call me a snob but I don’t like the finex. The handle wont last and you can’t put a lid on them. Too expensive as well.

how do you fry an egg sunny-side up in a cast fry-pan? 1/16" layer of hot bacon grease. Or a pad of butter in the skillet, turn on the fire, spread out the butter. As soon as it begins to slightly brown, throw the eggs on. Flip as needed. The key to not sticking eggs on a cast iron skillet is to cook the egg on top of oil or browning butter, not on top of the iron surface. Rarely do my skillets see the sink, and water. When done, I wipe them out. In the event one needs to be scrubbed clean, scrape it with a steel spatula, go to the sink with cold running water, and scrub without soap. Put the wet skillet on a fire, when the water has cooked off, turn off the fire, and cover the skillet in bacon grease.

Easy cook a bunch of Bacon in it first then drop your eggs in the grease, take your spatula and splash the hot grease on top of the eggs to cook the top side, this way you do not have to flip them over and possibly break the yolk or over cook them ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/03/full-1274-180831-img_2149.jpg)
