Cast iron question

I have a question for all of the cast iron gurus out there. I bought a stove with a center burner and it came with a cast iron flat plate to go over the center burner. It says it was pre-seasoned. No, I don't believe it is as good as it should be. But one of the first meals I tried to cook on it was Reubens. You would think buttered bread would not be an issue. You would think.

I seasoned it according to a couple of different recommendations. Still had issues. I sanded it smooth and re-seasoned it. Better. But this morning, I tried to cook pancakes on it. First batch worked pretty well. Second batch started sticking again.

What am I missing? What am I doing wrong?

I always do a light shot of PAM spray oil between pancake sets. Also watch your temperatures…easy to be too hot.
