I got my WSM new in December 2007. Very recently, after a marathon cook session that lasted over 24 hours, I noticed that my lid vent is stuck in the open position. It almost feels as though the vent is glued to the lid. I don't find any stickiness anywhere else in or on my cooker.
I fuel my fires with Trader Joe's / Rancher briquettes, and use hardwood chunks that have been seasoned for several months at least.
Can anyone provide some guidance on how/why my lid vent may have stuck this way? More importantly, does anyone have any suggestions re quickly and easily "de-sticking" the vent?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
