Debate: Should you reseason after every cook or just wipe it down?
I tried doing the full oven reseason after every meal for a month. My pan looked great but it took forever. Now I'm back to just wiping with oil after cleaning. The seasoning is fine but not as shiny. What do you all do? Does the extra effort really matter in the long run?

My buddy got super into the whole oven reseason thing. Told me his pan looked amazing but he was spending more time seasoning than actually cooking. After a month he just gave up and went back to stovetop oiling and his food tastes exactly the same (maybe even better cause he's not rushed).

He spent more time seasoning than actually cooking" - that's exactly what happened to my friend Maria. She got obsessed with the oven method, stripped and reseasoned like 4 times, then went back to just cooking bacon and eggs in it and it's fine.
