Using
On a regular Basis
Give special care to your smoker to prevent rust.
Use warm, soapy water to clean the cooking and charcoal grids, drip and
charcoal pans and the interior and exterior surfaces of your smoker.
Rinse well with water.
Wipe completely dry with a soft cloth or paper towel. Do not allow the smoker,
pans and grids to drain dry.
To prevent rust, apply a light coat of vegetable oil or vegetable cooking spray
to the surface of the following pieces: the smoking lid, cooking grid and water
pan. Gently wipe dry with paper towels. Do NOT apply oil to the charcoal grid,
charcoal pan and the interior surface of the smoker.
If Rust occurs
On exterior surface of the smoker:
Clean and buff all rust spots with a grill brush.
Touch-up affected areas with a good high-temperature resistant paint.
On the interior surface of the smoker:
Clean and buff all rust spots with a grill brush.
Lightly coat affected areas with vegetable oil or vegetable cooking spray to
minimize rusting. Gently wipe dry with paper towels. Never apply paint to the
interior surface of the smoker.
Caution
Do not use sharp objects or abrasive cleaners to clean the cooking grid, charcoal
grid or the smoker, as this will damage the finish.
To remove grease deposit on the inside of the smoking lid, simply brush these
flakes off with a brass brush or crumpled aluminium foil. To prevent future
buildup, after each use and while the lid is still warm (not hot!), wipe the inside
surface of the lid with paper towels or clean with soapy water.
Notes:
Do not wash any of the parts of the smoker oven in the dishwasher.
Wear, corrosion, deformation and discolouration of the parts that are directly
exposed to the fire is quite normal and will therefore in no event ever be consid-
ered as a production flaw. It is the logical result of their use.
