Trathor Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Do you guys ever use cast iron on your KKs? Let's say you wanted to cook crepes/ eggs/ pancakes/ stir fry in the manner of a mongolian grill? Is there any equipment you would recommend/ not recommend?

mguerra Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Re: cast iron skillet/ other Cast iron pizza pans, Dutch ovens, skillets, we use them all. Your KK is a big oven and a stove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Re: cast iron skillet/ other I've only ever used a pizza stone and a CI dutch oven. Cooking is best done with the lid down and liquid spillage should be kept to a minimum. Eggs? Could be tricky since they need pretty low heat. Frittatas might do OK. A KK is a much better oven than it is a stove. dub(and i probly wouldn't try deep-frying on one either) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pizzas just stick to it too much and then i have a mess so i use the cast iron favorites. Here is a picture of it in use, one of my pizza baked in the oven pre KK days we are a Supreme family here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fcnich Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Re: cast iron skillet/ other Just put a little corn meal on your stone, then slip the pizza onto it, it will come right off, no mess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 I've used Cast Iron skillets, Dutch Ovens, Griddles and not so much as a hiccup. I use them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner cooks. The CI griddles makes a nice surface for breakfast ... eggs ... while I'm bringing TheBeast up to temp for a Saturday rib cook. Bacon works very well on the main grates. There is really no need to do bacon on the griddle except for the fact that you may need/like a little bacon grease for the eggs on the griddle. I've used Dutch Ovens for just about everything imaginable ... cobblers, cakes, stews, chilis. Very versatile piece of CI. I've been known to use a skillet for deep dish pizza. CI lends itself very well to the KK, IMNSHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Another great use for a cast iron skillet - cajun blackened pork chops! I put the skillet right down on the sear grate as close to the fire as I can get it. Used the split basket to give an off the flame area to let the chops finish cooking after the initial char. Seriously tasty chops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Killer chops there Tony! Very nicely done. Kudos to ya! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Thanks, CC! As you've discovered, cooking on the KK is so damned much fun, we look for new ways (I mean, excuses) to use it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
