Got a set of "gourmet cast iron cookware" for Christmas. Not necessarily the ones we would have bought but hey.... it was a gift. Now I need to know: the inside of the dutch oven is ROUGH. I mean really rough in places. Do we need to worry about this roughness? Mike is wanting to GRIND or Sand it down......lol.....
you know men.. Get out the big tools.... I dont think it is bad enough that things will stick to it after we season it. but wanted to get some opinions.

After seasonining it a couple of times or cooking meats in it the roughness should lessen. I would not worry about and enjoy using the cast iron.

I too got a set CI cookware for a gift and, yes, it was a little rough (ok a lot rough). I thought about grinding the surfaces. However, after a good thorough seasoning and cooking a few times with it, nothing seems to stick or get embedded in the surfaces. Cleanup is easy too. Now get out there and get cookin”

cook with it for awhile. If you have problems then you can think about grinding/sanding it.
