Rice Bran Oil

Hi Chef,

Remembering that in one of your posts you had suggested that rice bran oil was your all time favorite to cook with, saving its high cost in a restaurant setting, I picked up a bottle last weekend and just used it to make a burger.

I dont remember seeing that much smoke coming out of the pan.  I was using my trusty cast iron and put a light coating in the bottom after heating up the pan.  It started smoking before I put the burger in and kept smoking till I turned the burner off.

Not sure why I had this problem as I haven't had this problem with canola, peanut or grape seed oils.  Must have done something wrong as it is listed with a pretty high smoke point.

Any thoughts?
