Thank you for sharing a great hunt.

[@mellio9077]

Thank you!!! This is among the best content on KZbin! Great info. Love relaxing with a glass of wine and learning something new.

[@ruthmeow4262]

I love the kettle, would have taken that home in a heartbeat.

[@castIroncookware]

It is hard to leave certain pieces behind.

[@mikelaney3026]

Good job young man very informative. God bless

[@HeadtoTailBBQCooking]

Another good video and information. Thanks for sharing!

[@boilerhonkiedude9163]

YAY! Thanks very much Steven!! The best part (besides the end treasure" was the promise of more "wilds". Blessings!

[@AvaPotterfieldandFriends]

Great video! Thank you!

[@papabones6307]

Great video. I live about 50 miles southeast of there. Been a while since I've looked in that area. Just now finding your channel so hitting the big red subscribe button, and catching up on what you have posted. I love the old cast iron. I'm 64 so been around it and using it for years. I have several pieces that was passed down. Some BSR, Old script Wagner, Older Lodge. I really enjoy finding old rusty pieces and putting them back in use. Keep up the great videos.

[@castIroncookware]

You are absolutely welcome. Thank you so much for watching and subscribing.

[@danmiller6890]

This was really an enjoyable video. Thanks so much for making it.

[@michaelbaumgardner2530]

Absolutely love in the wild,I can somehow loose a whole day doing such...and my fave was the#10 I need a couple of bigger skillets...👍👍

[@bobs5596]

it's a problem evenly heating larger skillets. they are really only good for biscuits in the oven and use over a campfire where you can heat the whole surface. if you use a stove element, it will heat the center and possibly warp the bottom.

[@castIroncookware]

@@bobs5596 I will usually preheat the larger pans in the oven before using them on the stove-top for that very reason or start them on low until the whole pan is heated evenly.

[@rickballard1627]

Thanks for sharing enjoyed watching

[@turdferguson5300]

I've noticed when I find a lot of cast iron in one place it's usually overpriced. If you look around you don't have to spend a fortune to have a nice collection. I enjoy getting them cheap and restoring them myself. A lot of times I find a piece that I don't need at a good price so I use it as traders. Most people will take restored cast iron for their dirty piece. The larger the skillet the better it trades.

[@bradpayne2973]

Wow love when you shop around,thanks so much you are a big help to me. Salvation is the greatest treasure 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@savannahv1808]

Great video, thank you for the information!

[@Str8Flossin]

Awesome! Always learn something from your “Wild” episodes. We have the same exact marked BSR at 25:40. I got a great deal on mine as well, but I have some work in getting her back to cooking shape.

[@castIroncookware]

Awesome! I'm working on setting up another wild video for next weekend. If all goes well, it will air the following week.

[@seanmayenschein8321]

Great video

[@olskool3967]

Steven I love seeing your videos and your knowledge of casts iron. I always drag my wife along to hunt the antique shops for CI she always complains until we get there then she likes looking. we have a cabin we live in me and my brother and a friend built in 2017 it looks like we live somewhere in time! there is cast iron all over the walls. I wish I had your email I would send you some photos. anyway I love your videos and the word u read at the end,,,,,,,,,,,

[@castIroncookware]

I would love to see some pictures. My email is [e-mail]

[@papirowhite6322]

Welcome back

[@castIroncookware]

Thank you. I am planning more to come.

[@Ambimom]

I guess the days of finding cast iron for $1 at a garage sale are over LOL. But frankly, up here in the North, you NEVER find cast iron at a garage sale. I did get 3 skillets (small, medium, large) for $11 from Boscovs about 20 years ago which I've used every day since. That same set is now $40, still a bargain.

[@castIroncookware]

Now that CI is gaining in popularity and people are learning more about the value, great deals come along less often.

[@bobs5596]

nice vid, cool find.

[@meancuisine8]

LoL!!! You bought that skillet BECAUSE it has odd markings?!?!? BrotherSteve, You have the fever worse than i do BY FAR!!! Hilarious! Great upload. Blessings and Abundance upon You and Your LovedOnes.

[@duanerichardson5405]

Always enjoy your hunting videos.and I'm with you I always find those strange odd ball ones to be the most collectable . Another thought is that you gotta wonder if maybe it was either hand cast or made by another foundry using a BSR mold. To me it's the unknown that makes it collectable. Great find.

[@marksieber4626]

I have a Chicago foundry pan and wonder if you’ve done any shows on that?

[@castIroncookware]

I do not currently have any Chicago Hardware Foundry pieces to share. That would be a good video. There is also very little information out there on them.

[@davidwang6056]

hi i am from china mainland, your big fans!

[@castIroncookware]

Awesome! Thank you for watching.

[@dixiewhiskey3273]

I just got a 1891 dual griddle it’s awesome for the price

[@castIroncookware]

They do make great users. Not currently very collectable but great cast iron non the less.

[@dixiewhiskey3273]

@@castIroncookware yep paid $40 for it and the fact it’s as old as I am is just a bonus

[@elizabethmcglothlin5406]

Thanks! I love your 'In the wild' videos. I keep hoping to see my Griswold dutch oven in one of them. I even bought the book, but no sign of it. It's my reliable user--several times a week--and I'd love to know something about it. Maybe someday!

[@castIroncookware]

I'm planning on more frequent wild videos and maybe I'll run across more Griswolds.

[@elizabethmcglothlin5406]

@@castIroncookware I'm in Ohio, so PA and OH makers are more common. I have A Griswold 8 dutch oven. Small logo, hinged lid, no bails or holes, with a lovely small hammered exterior finish. The book showed a hammered aluminum, but this dark and heavy, definitely iron. Maybe someday!

[@jerryvaughn5190]

I have 4 wagners and 1 Griswold and I think the Griswold cooks the best. Yet I have not seen you show any.

[@bamagtrdude]

IMO the seller is justified in asking top dollar b/c most pieces have been restored; i get aggravated with sellers in antique malls that ask top dollar for dirty, warped, and non-restored pieces

[@castIroncookware]

There was a lot of work put into those pieces. They were asking top prices but in turn they were top quality pieces. I agree that pieces that have not been restored would be valued much less.

[@bamagtrdude]

@@castIroncookware correct; i have no problem with top prices for top quality/desirable/collectible pieces whatsoever.

[@davidgilbreath1378]

Steven i have a. Bsr. Cornbread skillet with Patten pending. How old is it

[@castIroncookware]

They were made in 1967 and 1968. After that, they were all marked Made in USA.

[@shawnr6327]

Just picked up a RM #8 with the 8 at the 7:30 position with two dots and an underlined 8 lid

[@castIroncookware]

Those are really cool!

[@texdog2772]

Hi Stephen enjoy your videos and have a few pieces handed down. I found a giant griddle in the forest 35 years ago leaning against an oak tree. Think old hunting camp site. I cannot find out a lot about it. Its a 31 1/2" X 19 1/2" US The Estate Stove co 1943 EST 3961 It weighs 45 pounds it is in good condition a little rust on underside. Used once since I have owned. Any idea, I heard WWII issue. Thanks Ed

[@castIroncookware]

If you are able to send some pictures to my email, I will do my best to help ID it. My email is [e-mail]

[@randrowe9660]

Hi, If I ever found a Red Mountain 14 in good shape what do they generally go for? And yes, I really enjoyed the video! Sure would be fun to find a Red Mountain chicken fryer someday. Blessings back at you and yours, Rand

[@castIroncookware]

I read Mountain 14 depending on condition can be valued from $100 to $150. The condition, pour spout size and generation all plays a part.

[@larrystephens7437]

It was worth the time to watch just to hear the price of the Red Mountain Chicken Fryer. Oh my...

[@tbh334]

I wanted to ask a question. The other day I bought a chicken fryer. The size is 8 which is on top of the handle and is raised. The handle has the bsr ridge. No designations other than that. It has a ring on the bottom and included a hammered lid with a patterned drip knobs. Sorry this is long but could you tell me what you think this is. Bsr or something else. Thank you and really enjoy your videos

[@castIroncookware]

It would really help if you could send some pictures. My email is [e-mail]

[@mcmarshall12345]

I have a lot of b s r and the milled ones are some of the best cookers.

[@Elamour]

Steven, Just a quick question....Do you have a cast iron stove to match up with all your cast iron?

[@castIroncookware]

Not at the moment but it is on the hope to find list.

[@kahnaemery7767]

I bought a small wood-handled saucepan; (Made in Taiwan), at a thrift store. It looks like cast iron, but when I cleaned and then cooked in it, it had that wet metal odor. Does that mean it is made with other (cheap) metals besides cast iron? Thank you

[@castIroncookware]

It sounds like it is in need of seasoning. About three layers should do it. when applying seasoning layers, remember "Less Is Best". Keep the layers as thin as possible.

[@thejim3501]

Could you help a new collector? My friend passed away at age 85 His wife gave me some nice pieces he intended to restore.One is a HEAVY spider skillet with a prefect fitting Dutch oven type lid. No gate mark, but she said his mother cooked on it when he was a kid. Handle has raised 12 IN marking. Lid is marked 12. Both might weigh 15 pounds? What could this be?

[@castIroncookware]

You are welcome to send picture to my email [e-mail] . I will do my best to help.

[@rodneyparks6489]

AMEN

[@tcflesche84]

If my cast iron has a wooden handle can I still but it in the over to season or will it burn the wood? Good video steve

[@castIroncookware]

You will most likely have to remove the handle. Just to be on the safe side. In most cases, it is not too complicated.

[@papaw5405]

At one time I had a cast iron ashtray that looked like a skillet. Were they made by the major manufacturers and are they valuable?

[@lisanowakow3688]

I have a number 10 A BSR with a single dot, I thought that was indicating a shift. Is it a casting issue?

[@mellio9077]

26:52 - that’s how I feel about this video 👍now I gotta go catch up on video #9...

[@Str8Flossin]

I hear that! Lol

[@jeffreyswilsonsr5200]

i feel corn bread pans feel are not worth it, i make corn bread in my pans even a #12 pan like a cake cut it it up like a cake without the hassle of the pan been such pain to clean just not worth it to me... i also use #8 #10 pans as well and have enough to go around! try it #12 awesome you can use 4 boxes of jiffy mix in #12 pan!!!!

[@bobjustbob5220]

Since the red and blue book was published, has cast iron value went up or down?

[@castIroncookware]

Most have gone up considerably.

[@deepmarsh]

That entire rack/booth with all the skillets you showed at the beginning is gone. It also seems that store has different owners now than from about a year ago

[@castIroncookware]

I went in there a few weeks ago in your correct, it has changed a lot. They said that the main guy that had the cast iron has decided to start doing flea markets.

[@aliciakurtz4858]

You are my last hope. I have an old cast iron pot. It's deep with a basic wire handle and there's a small star mark on the bottom. I cannot find anywhere what the maker could be? Would you by chance know? Thank you!

Hi there... I'm having trouble trying to find any information about Martin cast iron. Do you know anyone that has any Martin's who would do a show with you? And where do you look for prices?

The is a great idea. I have a friend that maybe interest in doing just that.

[@barrychandler5250]

Is there a site for 1700"s cast iron cookware?

Who fries chicken anymore? You can buy one (8 piece) all day long at most super markets for $5 or $6 bucks.

[@castIroncookware]

Yes, I think she was curious about what I was doing there with the camera.

[@choctawhatcheekid309]

I know it's neither hear nor there but. In my humble opinion those are not Dutch Ovens they are Rosters. A Dutch Oven has legs and the lid has a lip on outer edge to hold coals to heat from top. A Dutch Oven is the Oven a Roster goes into an Oven.
