Now if only there was a way to speed up the heating process.

Sourdough,

I received a Tuscan Grill as a gift and haven't tried it yet. We want to do steaks with it. It appears to be unseasoned cast-iron. Do I need to season it? Is it ready to cook with? I thought about seasoning, but it seems like 800+ degrees would obliterate any seasoning.

We still season our cast iron grill. We use canola oil, grape seed oil or shortening. just brush it on, bake the heck out of it, and let it cool down before you use it. If rust shows up, then we clean it, season it again and we are good to go.

Like a cast-iron pan, don't clean with soap. Just brush it off, or burn it off.

Good luck.
