Ritch, Owner of Gator Pit of Texas, shows you what years of neglect to your Cooker can mean. It doesn't matter who made your Cooker, if you don't give it a little TLC, you will be repairing or buying another in the years to come. A lot of folks don't know or think to "maintain" their outdoor cooking equipment. Or, they put it off for another time. It is to show you that you have to take care of your cooker the same as your home, car, boat, motorcycle, etc. If you don't, you will have problems with the product functioning efficiently and costs to repair can be great. Don't change the oil in the motor and it will break down. Your cooker is no different. Keep your cooker regularly cleaned out. Especially, ash. It is acidic. Cancer to a cooker's firebox, especially. Keep moving parts lubricated. Touch up paint periodically. A good thorough cleaning inside and out two - three times a year will add life to your cooker. The owner of this cooker ended up buying new. Yes, we may have been able to "temporarily" give it life. But, the metal under the food chamber was rusted thin. He would have ended up with a nice new firebox that would have then outlasted the original sections of the cooker and be right back were he started. You get to a point where new vs repair. This customer not only chose to go new, but he got a nice customized Gator with features he wanted. He was able to personalize the new cooker and using this old cooker for years, made it easier for him to decide what he wanted in a custom Gator Pit.
