What oil do you season a new smoker with?

I used soybean oil in mine and it smells like crap after about 3 smokes.

You could try and burn it out by setting it on it's highest setting (with nothing in it) and let it run with all vents open for a few hours.

I got it cleaned out pretty good since its a ceramic coated steel inside. I'm mainly wondering what oil people use. The soybean oil spray I used was labeled vegetable oil but the ingredients just list soybean oil.

Personally I use plain old Crisco in a can or regular Pam in a spray can
