Cast Iron Griddle

Am I the only one who throws them in a campfire to clean? When they come out, re-season and they are like new. I've never heard of doing manual labor to clean them.
I've been doing this for over 40 years and teaching my Boy Scouts the same.

i learned the same. One of the pans I had in scouts 25 years ago is the same pan on my stove and it gets used all the time. The city frowns on my having a bomb fire to clean and season my cookware.
Now my camping pans, that's. different story.
