Your simplistic ways are your downfall. Why the heck would I
hate a pan?  That's just so silly. I'm an idea person, I'm
always on the lookout for new ideas. I love new ideas. Using a
cast iron pan to cook a burger is just plain dumb. I don't like
that idea at all.

 
 
Having had many burgers cooked in a cast iron pan I can tell you
is not dumb. They are excellent.
 

Ditto, Dave.  I nearly always use a cast iron skillet to cook
burgers.  Excellent heat conduction, great browning, able to
cook them to just your preferred doneness.  A grill works for
that, too.  I'm not sure what "new ideas" dsi1 is looking for.
It's just hamburgers.

You're wrong about cast iron being an excellent conductor of heat.
Information about the thermal conduction of metals is readily
available but my guess is that you're not into scientific tables
or science in general. Why do I even bother with yoose guys?

 
David, most of the talk is about heat retention and how useful it
is.

 
Americans don't cook with heat retention. Hawaiians, on the other
hand, certainly do.

David, mainlanders, especially from the south DEFINATELY cook with heat
retention.  They may not think of it, but they know it, everytime they
select a pan.
