I bought a grill griddle from Agri supply here in Gville a few months ago. I've tried to season it like my normal cast iron (BTW a former scoutmaster with a load of cast iron in the garage) and cooked all the normal seasoning foods (bacon, refried beans, burnt beans, commercial seasoning, oven method, etc) to try to make it close to non-stick, but no luck, its sticky. I've come to the conclusion that due to the really rough sand cast surface I'm not going to be able to get it be close to non-stick. It's like a leg trap right now. I've never had this problem before.
At this point I've been thinking about taking a grinding "sanding" wheel to it to smooth it some or possibly to a slick surface. From there begin the seasoning process over.
I'm wondering what yall think about taking it to a slick surface? or... any other thoughts? I'm not looking for a pancake maker. Plan to cook taco meats, burgers, steaks, fish, etc on it and able to move it around without it gluing down to the surface.
