Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I just got the pan earlier today and decided to season it before first use. I washed it with warm water only, dried it, and put in on a stove burner on low for a few minutes to evaporate any moisture off the pan. I did not let it get too hot to handle. I set my oven to preheat 350 degrees. I used a paper towel to rub Spectrum High Heat Canola Oil all over the pan without using enough to come near to dripping. When the oven was hot, I put the pan in there and shut the door for an hour. I just opened the door, and there was no smoke at all. Hopefully the picture I included will show that. Now, the pan is too hot to pick up even with an oven mitten, so it's staying in here to cool with the oven off until it is safe to handle. The point is that this was easy, and there was no smoke. Soon my pan will be cool enough for its first use. Update: Just made enough beef and beans for seven burritos, five of which are in the freezer. The pan cleaned up with the sponge I use to clean my nonstick pan.
