Do any of you guys use magnalite aluminum pots? They're a staple of south LA, and I like cooking with them, just concerned with health risks when using aluminum to cook.

 

I love my Magnalite pots been using them for years that and cast iron.

 

Go check out the calphalon outlet in round rock they have some good deals there and they make great products.

 

What ever you buy, make sure they have a thick laminated bottoms for heat distribution. You also have to own at least one cast iron skillet.
When I get a new piece of cast iron cookware, I like to use the disc grinder on it to smooth the interior and remove any exterior casting marks. If it has a spout for pouring, I also like to refine the contour to make it pour smoothly. One word of caution though, when you are smoothing the interior, I would not go any finer than about an 80 grit. Any finer than that and your curing won't bond well.
