I got a sizzle plate for Christmas - you will probably need to season the cast-iron before using.

I have seasoned a cast iron pan and a wok in the past. However, I did check on the net and the consensus appears to be "coat with a thin layer of vegetable oil and place in the oven upside down at 200 degC for 30 minutes. Then do it again and again, and again".

I have not received my sizzler plate yet but am I heading in the right direction?

(My previously seasoned pan and wok were just coated with oil and heated on the gas hob until the oil was smoking)

I just used the latter approach for my sizzle plate but I'm no expert!
 
It's arrived now and currently drying on the stoep from a good "soap-less" wash.
