Clean up

[mybackyard]

Hey yall... I have a Masterbuilt electric smoker. I am just trying to figure out how clean I need to make it in between uses? Thoughts?

Depends on your personal preference. You can scrub it clean as new if you care to invest that kind of time,. I just clean the crusty bits off the shelves once cooled & that's it. Everything else is seasoning. Once the "seasoning" builds up too much you may notice some flaking. This you'll want to scrape off, to keep it from falling on your meat. This is me; I'd rather smoke than scrub.

They need to be cleaned ?  No one told me that when I bought mine 4 years ago .

The grates get cleaned after each use.  The tinfoil covering the water dish gets changed once in a while.  The grease catcher gets changed on occasion.  And the outside get wiped off with a wet cloth when it needs it.  That's all the cleaning my MES  30 gets, and she's quite happy.
