do you season?

[fullmd]

do you "season" your barrels like the manufacturers say?

Sure, little cumin, some chili powder

I just stick with the tried and true, garlic powder and seasoning salt. With a dab of tumeric.

Cayenne, brown sugar, Kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper, paprika, fresh rosemary. Rub both sides, refrigerate for up to 48 hours. Slow cook, 225-250F. Fantastic on pork. For beef, no brown sugar.

Seasoning you do to cast iron frying pans. Barrel break-in is something else.

I only do the former.

Just add froglube and you've done all that's needed. LOL

I thought this was a thread about crepe pans

[paratroop]

Coarse salt, coarse black pepper are the key. You can add to it, cayenne, onion powder, garlic powder, coriander, whatever you wish. But you must start off with salt and pepper. Sea salt, kosher salt, pink himalayan salt, as long as it is coarse!

4-3-2-1 for me.

4 parts kosher salt
3 parts brown sugar
2 parts sweet paprika
1 part cayenne pepper

When I'm feeling especially frisky, I use smoked paprika in place of the sweet paprika.

I season meat that I cook.
I shoot my new firearms and then after a number of rounds(20-500) I will clean them. I do clean them if I have been shooting regular bullets and then switch to all copper such as Barnes.

The "trick" to breaking in a rifle is to just shoot it but never let the barrel get too hot to hold with your hand. It is the heat that causes faster wear sort to speak. Forget the shoot and clean after every or every 5 shots.

Proper breakin....

I thought this was a thread about crepe pans

Crepe pans, once broken in, need to cook only crepes.

My pan, older Revere Ware with copper outside and s/s inside, didn't seem to need a breaking. Just a little butter and I started frying crepes. 20 years later, no changes

Slip 2000 EWL. No smell, no spices you don't need. The camel-crap smell from Russian ammo is a b*tch to get out. I use Slip 720 cleaner-degreaser to do that.

[Buzzworm]

Yes, 1 to 2 years depending on the wood.
