*Tip* This is an old Italian wise tale but give it a shot and place 2 real corks into the pot! This will help tenderize the octopus!
-Cover dish and cook in the oven at 300F for 1.5-2 until fork tender.
-Remove octopus from pan, slice and grill high over fire or use another cast iron skillet to get the outside slightly charred and crispy. Do not over do it!
-Place Octopus back in the original pot and serve.
