Hey man, I loved the wadded up aluminum foil trick, definitely incorporating that into my cleaning cycle! I have the Yoder YS640 competition smoker, and let me tell you the Traeger cleaning is 10x easier! I use mine weekly, and I probably clean it every 6-9 months. I typically only go low and slow so I really don't need to worry about grease fires. But this past weekend I did clean it, and I guestimate it took me 30 minutes. And no, I do not degrease anything but I do scrape up any caked on greases and remove the ash. I emailed you the recipe for the baked beans I am trying out and earlier today I fired up the clean smoker to 350 for about an hour. Anyway, it's now hovering at 225 and for the first time ever I'm going to smoke some bone-in pork chops for dinner. Great video, and it's awesome that every time I watch one of yours I pick up something new. Great work team Neal and Amy!

First Neal puts out a baked beans video the day after I make baked beans, now he puts out a “clean your smoker” vid when I just cleaned mine last night! Either he has his finger on the pulse of the smoking community or I’m jumping the gun a bit. Either way, good tips!

@garryhammond3117 2 месяца назад

Great procedure that can apply to pretty much any smoker Neal. - Thanks. - Cheers!

I like where the grease bucket is on that.

Yeah...me as well..

@beardedchef5756 Месяц назад

I well dose this pit work compar to lone start grill. I need to know wich one will hold heat best and won't rust out on me. Also i would like to know uf they are thick enough for winter cooks.

@PelletsandPits Месяц назад

The lone star as you know is extremely thick metal...it should not rust but in todays world...just about all manufacturing have stepped up their game in that department...any grill you buy if not maintained properly will rust....as for winter...sure the lone star probably has a leg up..just based on the thick metal...but unless your in a winter storm and negative degrees alot of times...the traeger will keep up

@rickdomingo6122 Месяц назад

Just curious how does the Traeger ironwood xl compare to your LSG pellet grill. I was considering a LSG pellet grill but shipping for me is $1,250 and that was a quote from 2 years ago. I can only assume shipping cost are the same or have gone up.

@PelletsandPits Месяц назад

I actually have a head to head comparison with ribs....its a video thats available if you want to watch that...no doubt the Lone Star is more...but you get more out of it...the Traeger is on the more expensive side with almost no features...but flavor vs flavor is almost 100 same..

I just don’t get the, “I never degrease anything” approach. Doesn’t ash get stuck to the grease and create creosote? Doesn’t grease buildup increase the chance of a fire? I can understand not doing a full degrease every time you clean your smoker, but never doing it seems risky.

@PelletsandPits 7 дней назад

Because I use a scraper....once you get a pit...the first thing you do is start cooking on it...by that you are adding layers of seasoning...just like cast iron...you dont strip the seasoning with degreaser...you just learn to clean it...this is the same....if you degrease it....you literally turn around and have to season it...the creosote is scraped off....comes off easy...the ash is scraped...easy....

@EpicConspiracy 2 месяца назад

Do traegers not have an ash dump like the camp chef smokers?

@PelletsandPits 2 месяца назад

I dont know...i dont have a camp chef....

@Hacky2447 2 месяца назад

That is a large amount of ash buildup. How do you build up that much? That is crazy.

@PelletsandPits 2 месяца назад

Like I mentioned...alot of cooks....

@Hacky2447 2 месяца назад

@@PelletsandPits lol fair enough. I clearly don’t cook often enough on my smoker. I can’t imagine the amount of pellets you must go through. Got a favorite pellet brand or “flavor”?
