I have an old smoker. I cleaned all the rust from the inside and tried to wash the smoker, but the water just lays in the bottom of the grill.

I cleaned all the rust from the inside and tried to wash the smoker, but the water just lays in the bottom of the grill. Should I drill a hole in the bottom?

Welcome to the site, do you have a shop vac? I wouldn't drill any holes in it, lay it over? then build a fire in it to dry it out
 
Mine has a weep hole. What kind of smoker?
 
I would drill a hole but would keep in mind how to catch the grease. Also, welcome to the forum Larry.
