....BAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
No we won't. We just need to make sure we keep it clean, that's all.
We at Sizzle Grove use relatively small, non-competition, backyard smokers, because we prefer it that way. Either that or we are still poor and can't afford giant smokers. Either way, make sure that at least once a year, you cure your smoker. Probably more than once a year is best if you use it as much as we do.
Why cure your smoker? So it will last longer. And so that the metal inside the smoker and the lid won't chip off and burn into your food or something. I feel like that would suck.
So here's what to do:
1. Rinse your smoker thoroughly with water.
2. Clean your grill grate. We like to use those brillo-ish pads that already come with soap on them. You know, those ones.
3. Allow to air dry, or dry with a towel.
4. Rub the inside of the smoker and the lid with vegetable oil or canola oil. Do not rub the charcoal pan, and no need to rub the grill grate.
5. Set up your smoker with the charcoal pan at the bottom, light a batch of coals, and pour them in.
6. Close lid, and make sure the heat stays up for about 2 hours.
Man, I wish I could buy a Weber Smokey Mountain. Way bigger than it looks in pics.
