We have a Masterbuilt vertical electric smoker. Quite a bit of rust has developed inside.

Is sanding and painting the inside a no-no?

Thanks.
 
I would not paint the inside of your smoker. Use a stainless dish scrubbie to clean the rust and then keep the inside oiled with a good veg oil between smokes.
 
That’s kind of what I planned. We neglected it on a patio for a while. Won’t make that mistake again! The rust is that bad, so I’m going to give it a shot. Fingers crossed!!
