CrayCort Grills

Dumb ass question:

The CrayCort Grill that I ordered for my XL came in. I plan on using it today for Rib Eyes. My question is: Do I wash it before I use it ? I plan on putting oil on it as well.

Another question: Which side of the grate do I use or can I use either side ? One side is flat and the other side is raised. I know this isn't rocket science but that's me. :)

    Heat it, oil it, and use the raised side for the grill marks on your steak. I am sure they will turn out great!

    I have two CrayCorts and like them very much.
    It is pre-seasoned, so there is really no need to oil it, but it won't hurt if you do. Maybe better to rub a little EVOO on your steaks instead.
    FYI, cast iron does not need much cleaning, leave it cruddy and cook on it, the heat kills any bad stuff and the crud protects the CI and helps keep food from sticking :):)
