We had a really nice stretch of weather so I broke out my flat top for a cook or two. Since the forecast looked good, I left it uncovered. Big mistake, because the weather turned and it got rained on and it was a few days before i remembered, so it got a few rust spots. No big deal I think to myself, I'll just scrape the rust and reseason.
I have a Camp Chef Denali, which is a 3 burner stove and I have two griddle pieces to go over the burners. It can get really hot, to where I usually cook at the lowest setting. Well for seasoning I set it to medium. I didn't have my IR gun, but I noticed that even after I applied a few coats of oil and let it smoke off, the areas above the burners were turning whitish, not the nice black of seasoned cast iron. I even saw some dark red spots where it got really hot. So, finally my question - did I screw up the seasoning? What do I need to do differently?
