I did a brisket yesterday and opened all the vents to let the coals finish burning after I was done cooking. Well, about 30-minutes later the sky opened up with a really strong thunderstorm. I figured no problem, the lid is on right?
I'm buying wheels for that thing this week! The water got into the smoker, down on the coals where they blew up like a miniature volcano, coating the whole inside of the smoker with a gazillion little black coal particles. What a mess!! and all the ash and stuff on the bottom mixed in with about 2-inches of water and made a slush.
This morning I just spent over an hour cleaning everything up. That stuff got on everything, the grates too. Glad it didn't happen while I had food in it!
I'm getting some wheels so I can move this thing around, just in case.
Best,
Jose
