Every time I make goulash I always think of my grandpa. He loved it so much. He called it “goosh” lol. He called me one night and said, “ Cookie I just bought some hamburger and I want you to come over and make me some goosh”. He went into the hospital the very next day and never came out. He never got his goulash and it still breaks my heart. So this dinner is in memory of my grandpa. Miss my grandparents so much.

How To Restore a Rusty Cast Iron Skillet
🍳
Don’t toss that cast iron skillet or pot away just because it is rusty, refurbish it!
You will need the following items:
A steel wool pad
A scouring pad
An old dish towel or paper towels
Dish soap, preferably Dawn
Crisco or Vegetable oil
Aluminum foil
Baking sheet
~~Instructions~~
**Remove all the rust: Use a steel wool pad to remove rust from the pan. You are going to have to scrub and scour the skillet until the area returns to raw cast iron. It many take awhile, but scrub til you get there!
**Wash the skillet thoroughly: Wash the cast iron with warm water and mild dish soap, such as Dawn. Scrub with a scouring pad to clean it well.
**Dry the skillet: Thoroughly dry the cast iron immediately with an old clean dish towel or paper towels.
** Cover the pan with a coating of Crisco or vegetable oil: Apply a small amount of vegetable oil (or cooking oil of choice) to the entire pan, bottom, handle and all. Use only a small amount to avoid a sticky surface.
**Place the cast iron pan upside down on the top rack of your oven. Place a sheet of aluminum foil or a foil-lined baking sheet on the bottom rack to catch any oil drips. Heat the cast iron for one hour at 350°F.
**Turn off heat, let cast iron cool completely in the oven!
**Now, you are all set to cook again!
