Grill Maintenance

Frequency of cleanup is determined by how much your smoker is used. Make sure coals are completely extinguished before cleaning inside of smoker. Inside surfaces may be cleaned with a strong solution of detergent and water applied with a scrub brush. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before using again.

If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

HELPFUL HINTS

•Remove the ash after each use.

•Covered side dishes can be warmed in smoker chamber.

•To prevent flare-ups, brush meat lightly with oil before grilling.

•Keep a small squirt bottle of water handy for grilling flare-ups.
