I should think any dish soap would work and I'm wondering if peanut oil would be a good lube because of its high flash point. I am just using logic hear and telling you what I might try.
More logic about the Window.
After carful thought here is what I think.
I also have a
WSM and a Holland grill, the Holland cooks by time, there is no heat adjustment, you just turn it on put your food on the grill, close the lid and wait. Holland says " if your look' your not cook'n" the
WSM is pretty much the same, only in that if you lift the lid it take time to recover the heat you loose.
Looking at the food through a window wouldn't do me much good as I can't tell by looking what the internal temp it. I have learned to use remote probes to monitor that, which is more accurate then looking through a window of pushing and poking the food and I kind of like the build up on the door that adds to the seasoning of my
Masterbuilt, I can see everything I need to know about that is going on in the smoker on my iPhone and my remote meat probe monitor.
For these reasons I can't justify the added cost of a window just for the conveince of looking.
But when it's hot and muggy I can justify air conditioning in my vehicles and a whole lot more extras. I have a 2013 ML350 and a 2015 Ram 1500 Limited both are loaded with options some I can live without but most I would miss. Hear in Minnesota in the winter heated seats and steering wheel are really nice and I like the fact that I can start my truck from anywhere with my phone and depending on the temp either the heated seat and steering wheel will come on or the cooled seats and air will come on. Just saying I do appreciate comfort and convenience. Ok I'm done with the window now. Anything else Bear says about smoking you can take to the bank, he is indeed a guru. [emoji]129303[/emoji]
