I have been using a Webber Smoky Mountain smoker for a while.
Just came back home and noticed that stuff is flaking off from the lid into the water basin. It's basically the wood/charcoal tar flaking.
Just wondering if I should clean the inside of the whole thing or just ignore it.
A full clean will remove the built up smoke flavour from the tar residue.. :( :(
I wouldn't worry about it mate, as long as it's not flaking off and getting into the food :)
that w ?ould be like seasoning on the inside of lid wouldnt it
Yea just scrape off the flakey stuff with a wooden spoon or similar.
Thanks.
I was just going to scrape/brush the loose bits, but I thought I better check with the pros here.
As TD said add to the flavour.Quote:
