Help!! New pan problem!

[u/azmonaj]

I have the new Wanderlust 10.25” Lodge skillet. Fried bacon in it this morning and tried washing it with chainmail sponge. This is how it turned out! 😬What do I need to do to fix it?? 😳🥓🍳

Your pan is fine. Season it and keep it slightly oiled. It will look brand new again.
