    I stand corrected. I assumed (you know what that does<G>) they were
    rubber coated metal.

    My mistake.

    Understand. Silicone is a high temp rubber, just have to see how it ages.

    Sounds like you need an update on the handling and using of cast iron
    cooking equipment.

    Once a C/I pot has been cleaned and "seasoned", you don't ever need
    water to clean it again.

    You simply wipe it out, I use a plastic pot scrubber, re-season, and
    you are ready to use it again.

    They provide the best heat distribution of any cooking material, thud
    you actually use less cooking fuel than with other materials such as
    clad S/S or Aluminum.

    To paraphrase somebody else, you can pry my C/I chicken fryer from my
    cold dead hand. It is about the only cooking appliance I use<G>.
