Cast Iron skillet help

smokeyandthebandit05 · 03-20-2009, 09:09 PM

I didnt realize I couldnt use a cast iron skillet on a glass/ceramic top stove. I read online about getting a heat diffuser but they all seem to be for low heat applications. Also the bottom of the pan is not smooth, it has the Cabelas logo and such. I read that the pan could scratch the top and damage the "eye". The non flat bottom could also cause the element to turn on and off causing damage to the element.

Does anyone else cook with cast iron on a flat top range? Or anyone have advice?
