Grease Management Area and Bucket
Always be sure the cooking chamber area is clean and free of debris and empty the
grease bucket regularly.
Additional Maintenance:
In addition to regular cleaning, perform the following procedures every 30 days:
1. Use a stiff brush to remove any build-up on the inside walls of your grill. Inspect and
clean the inside of the door and the inside walls of the cooking chamber.
2. When your grill is cool to the touch use a shop vacuum to thoroughly clean the
cooking chamber and firebox.
3. Use a citrus based cleaning solution to thoroughly clean the inside of the smoker.
4. Finally, visually inspect the painted surfaces and touch up any scratches with high
heat flat black paint. Touchup paint can be purchased from Yoder Smokers.
Call 1-877-409-6337.
Storing Your Grill
Cover your Yoder Smoker to protect it from the weather. If storing your cooker inside,
be sure the smoker is cool to the touch before moving it inside. Inspect the firebox and
cooking chamber for any remaining embers before storing the unit.
