Short chain oil!? At first I thought you were bs'ing about seasoning a pan with gear oil.

That sent me down a novel rabbit hole. Thanks for your input!

I don't get the joke. I just tried Google and it had nothing for seasoning cast iron with chain or gear oil. Is this a thing?

The chains being referred to here are molecular chains, not mechanical ones.

Thank you. That joke/wordplay went straight over my head.
