This probably a silly question...what is the recommended method for cleaning the SnS?

Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.

I'm assuming you can use soap and water but I don't bother cleaning it...what's the purpose?

I use a very hot fire that eventually ignites particles inside the water reservoir.

I see no need to do anything other than that.

Hot fire then scrape out the debris from the water reservoir. That's all that's needed.

when answering questions about the SnS could you start ending them with a catchy catch phrase like "so saith the pit boss" or something like that... sounds pretty official that way lol.... sorry...
