How to Clean a Cast-Iron Broiler Pan
- 1). Clean the broiler pan while it is hot. Rinse the cast-iron pan with hot water, and use a spatula to scrape away any burned-on food.
- 2). Use kosher salt to scrub. Pour on ½ cup of kosher salt while the pan remains warm. Pour 3 to 4 tbsp. of hot water to create a paste. Use a soft sponge to scrub the pan, and then rinse it out well.
- 3). Use stainless-steel wool and dish soap. For tough cleaning, you may have to use the wool and soap to remove burned food and grease. In this case, you will need to season the broiler pan again following the manufacturer's instructions.
- 4). Dry the pan over low heat. Rub 2 tbsp. of vegetable oil into the pan with a paper towel. This helps prevent rust on the pan.
