That's right folks. A different sort of theme, based on equipment. We do ingredients, we do techniques, we do locations. Now we are doing cast iron, in various forms. You can make anything you want, as long as the primary cooking vessel is cast iron. It could be fried chicken done is a skillet full of Crisco. It could be a burger done on a griddle. Make a batch of black eye pea in an enameled dutch oven, served with jalapeno cheese cornbread from an 8 inch skillet. Or cook outside in a dutch oven over a bed of coals, or grill up some steaks on a cast iron grate on your grill. Maybe you have a cast iron wok, and you are in the mood for some beef and gai lan stirfry. Or your Thanksgiving fowl in a large enameled roaster.
The sky is the limit, Have fun!
The Rules:
The challenge begins on the 1st of every month. The last entry must be made by the last day of the month.
You may post multiple entries.
All entries must be cooked during the month of the challenge.
If you use a documented recipe, please cite your source.
Entries should include the name of your dish and a picture of the final product. Sharing personal recipes and pictures of the process are not mandatory but extremely helpful.
The winner is chosen by the person who posted the challenge, and is announced after the last day of submissions. The decision is final and falls entirely at the discretion of the challenger.
Submitting an entry makes you eligible to win. If you do not wish to be considered for the win you may still participate in the challenge, but make your wishes known to the challenger.
The winner's bounty includes praise, virtual high-fives, and the responsibility of posting the next month's challenge. That entails choosing a theme, posting a Challenge thread that includes the guidelines, checking in on the submissions regularly during the month, and promptly choosing a winner at the end of the challenge.
