Hello everyone: Need Help
Background:
I recently purchased a masterbuilt electric smoker. My daughter has asked to have a Summer in December birthday party, and has been asking for a home cooked smoked meal instead of catering. Due to being away the majority of a year for work obligations, I wanted to make this happen. I have been reading so much information and learning from this forum. It is an awesome place.
Problem;
I did the seasoning last night as directed by user manual. I am doing this early to get many trial runs in before her party.
The pictures show the result of the seasoning. There is a brown stick substance coating the entire inside smoker. Is this normal? Is this creosote? I always thought creosote is more black in nature. I just don't want my 9 year old daughter ingesting anything negative. I am really nervous. I appreciate the help everyone - it is appreciated more than you know! I am nearly embarrassed to post this, because I am sure I did something really stupid, or this is just normal....
