Only done a couple of cooks with this smoker, I noticed after the last two cooks that there was some flaking and bubbling around the back wall and sides of the smoker. When I went to clean the grates after yesterday's cook (turkey breast and baby back ribs - temp kept between 225-250 for about 6 hours), what appears to be a patch of paint came off and I was seeing bare metal on the back wall.
Is this normal? or have I just won the bad luck lottery with Masterbuilt's quality control (my last unit had to be returned to home depot after rusting after 1 smoke!). Masterbuilt's warranty specifically does not cover things like paint or rust. so I'm planning on showing the pic to home depot and seeing what they'll do.
If this is normal, how do I fix/treat it? If not, how do I prevent it from happening again (Assuming HD will replace the unit).
Unit is Masterbuild MDS 230s
Thanks
