Just picked up a brand new do from clist for $15 bucks last night. Tried to season it and got impatient. Put the oven on self clean and cleaned any season progress I made. Started over this morning. So for anyone who did not know you cannot speed up the seasoning process.

Maybe I'm too simplistic, but when I season my iron, I simply clean it thoroughly, then I get it hot, thoroughly rub in a little Crisco/lard, let it cool, repeat heating, oiling, cooling, about three times and put the pan to work. I try to cook the first few meals in the pan using recipes that have a little natural oil in them (bacon, hamburger, etc.) It seems to me that no seasoning process can replace actually USING the pan.
