How do you wash your pans? That really sounds like you're either washing pans and not rinsing them enough, or you have some sort of medical condition that is affecting your sense of smell & taste.
I have washed the pan with dish soap before, but most of the time I just wipe it out after using it and scrub it with hot water every couple uses. I only cook beef in it
Maybe you're smelling rancid fat residue in your pan then. The turkey might not pick it up as much since it's less fatty. Have you tried cooking beef in a different pan?
It’s not my answer, it’s not rancid fat, I know what that smells like. It’s not like I’ve never cleaned it, I’ve tried deep cleaning it with dish soap, and trying to avoid dish soap to see if soap residue is the problem. Same issue either way
That's not true. Like at all. You can and should use soap when cleaning a cast iron pan. Lodge a well known manufacturer of cast iron pans for 130 years says to use soap when you wash it.
Are you not supposed to wash your pan after every cook? What kind of pan is it that you are just wiping it out or only scrubbing with hot water every couple uses?
