I recently bought a Camp Chef Woodwind 24 Wifi pellet smoker and have liked it a lot these first few weeks. Like a lot of people, removing the grease and burnt-on gunk off the drip pan is a pain and I would like to minimize this. I have wrapped the pan with foil when doing low and slow cooks, but it too is a bit of a pain getting it to stay on just right.
I know they now make aluminum drip liners (like Drip EZ) ... I am sure they work well but are a bit on the pricey side. So I was thinking, why not use a silicone baking mat like is used for baking cookies, etc. They are reusable multiple times and can be washed clean easily. From everything I have read they have been proven to be safe if you keep them under 450 F. Seems like this might be a good alternative. Thoughts?
