I set the oven to 350. Take veggie oil and coat the pan inside and out make sure it is all covered. Place a drip pan on bottom rack! Very Important!! Place in oven upside down and let go for about 3 hours. Turn off oven and let it cool completely. Wipe with dry paper towel and store. Never use soap to clean. Yes, your house will smell funny. Some people use gas grills.

I forgot what was mentioned, so I am wondering how this is done. Thanks Jen
