What surprised me was the puddle of grease on the mat under the drain cap that made it through the deflector and hot coals. The temps dropped into the 40s so the grease started to congeal and then I took off the cap to clean it out. Not only was it filled with congealed fat, but a bunch dropped out of the tube. Is that normal?
I saw one Youtuber put scentless clay kitty litter on the bottom of his OJB to absorb the grease. I like that idea, but I'm wondering how food safe it is when heated. Any thoughts on the food safety of clay kitty litter and fullers earth? Do you have any other tips for managing grease?
