I used the search function but was not able to find another instance of this happening.
I smoked a brisket last Tuesday, after I was done I did my normal routine, close all the vents to put out the coals. Came back a day later, and bam, cannot get the lid off the darn thing. It's to the point where I can carry the lid + mid section by the lid's handle without any fear of it separating and dropping.
Once I get this separated I am never going to leave it on like that again. The only thing I can think of is maybe some fat got on there and solidified?
Will firing this baby up again help dissolve whatever the hell is holding this together? Anyone experience this before?
