Title: Another Cleaning ?
Post by: Dswinty on September 10, 2023, 10:51:29 PM
I am a newbie so I am trying to get this figured out.  I get quite a bit of build up on the door right in front of the smoke box and also in back of the smoke box.  Should I be cleaning this heavy build up after each smoke?

Not necessary.  Over time, it will harden and get flaky; brush off the flakes.  Of course,it you feel the urge, you can indeed clean off this residue.  But it really is not necessary.  Far more important to keep the bottom free of grease and oil which is why we foil the bottom and cover the wood box lid.  And not there is an accessory secondary drip tray that fits snugly up against the walls of the smoker facilitating an easier after smoke clean-up.
