Should I get the DO up to temperature, or put the ingredients in while it's cool?

The only reason I ask is because I'm currently seasoning a new 12" Lodge.

I'm assuming patience is the answer, but curious in others opinions.

    I'd get it up to temp before adding Cobbler. May even want to melt a stick of butter in there as its coming up to temp. =P~

    We always put mine in cold just because that's the way my mom taught us while camping.  We use a #12 Lodge for our cobblers too.

    @NibbleMeThis‌ Do you use a can of Sprite? I've read a few recipes that call for the soda...

    My recipe has you melting a stick of butter, then adding the fruit mixture, then pouring the batter in.  I have done it in my 5 QT lodge DO.  Let me know if you need a recipe.

    My recipe:
    (2) 30 oz cans peaches
    (1) yellow cake mix
    (1) 12 oz Sprite

    Add peaches.
    Add cake mix.
    Add Sprite, don't mix/stir.

    I'm thinking of adding butter before the peaches and brown sugar/cinnamon for topping...

    I melt the butter in the CI and put batter etc in and CI goes in cold. Just the way Grandma did it. And Grandma knew best :-)

    Interesting recipe, maybe no butter!  Tell us how it turns out.  I like my recipe, but am ready to branch out and try some other approaches!
