i was looking for  cast iron grill pan and was wondering if anyone knows of a brand that has a kosher certification for preseasoned.

if not it was my understanding that one has to remove the seasonng kasher and then reseason??

Ask your LOR.

Here's a response I got from Lodge:

Thank you for taking time to inquire about the oil that Lodge uses for seasoning. The oil is a kosher certified soy vegetable oil that is applied and baked onto the cookware. Although the oil is kosher, Lodge's process of applying it and our cookware is not certified Kosher.

Here is a link to the kosher certification on our supplier’s website.

To which I responded by recommending that they get their own Hashgocho.

We have a lodge that we put in the self clean and then seasoned that we are very happy with.

I am sure Lodge is good, which is why I reached out to them, question is if putting in through a self cleaning in the oven is universally accepted? Would be much better if they realized that Kosher consumers are a force to reckon with and get reliable Hashgocho.

Agreed it would be better and easier.
The CrC in Chicago told my wife to self clean it.
