Seasoning question

[TodB]

The 3D arrived yesterday and has been unpacked and set up.

Two questions:

1. What is the (covered) female plug for on the back of the controller?
2. I watched a video (2 gutys and a cooler) on seasoning. It suggested wiping down the inside, applying a light oil to the inside and then seasoning at 325. Should I be doing this in combination with the provided wood?

If you have the pro model, it is simply an electrical outlet . I am not aware that the non-pro controllers have this feature. Give Steve a call. As for seasoning, I would follow the instructions that came with the smoker but 2 guys and cooler are reliable and have a ton of experience. You choice.
