Pro tip for cleaning in general: Glove up before tackling your cleaning! You can usually grab a box of nitrile gloves from a local store or Amazon for around 10 bucks. Saves you from having to scrape gunk from your fingernails later. Plus you get the added benefit of feeling like your're performing grill surgery :D
Truth! Here's some more truth though... I'm too lazy for gloves haha
Nitrile gloves have shot up in price in the COVID era! I use Venom Steel and they run $30-$40 per hundred, now!
Fun to see her dirty hands. Not a lot of girls like that
Awesome it’s nice to see a woman in the smoking scene enjoying your recipes and enjoying your tutorial on cleaning the smoker. thank you so much. Appreciate fact you’re fellow camp chef’er. My DLX 24 flash pan, does not have vents where smoke “filters through” it’s just flat. So I do foil that flat section with heavy duty wide foil which works perfectly. Thanks again.
Enjoyed the video. It's nice that you moving around and adding people to your videos. Loved the blooper.
Cheers from Arkansas!!
Thank you so much John! I'm trying to branch out and add some more entertaining elements to my videos. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
I just started pellet grilling and wow these are alot of work. so thank you , you are my backyard hero😉😊
I clean this way after every smoke. Not the inside walls. It's a treager 3400. A year old and use it almost every weekend. Looks almost new. It's easy if you keep up with it. 😁
Another excellent, clear video. Thanks!
Awesome video! Just what I needed, easy to find tools to get the job done. Just went to home depot to buy everything. Came home cleaned the grill in about half an hour. I really liked the fact that I didn't have to buy chemicals to use on the inside so I could use my smoker right after cleaning!
I loved seeing you get your hands dirty. Smoking is a dirty job - soot, grease, and smoke. But that is what makes it fun!
I don't even have a smoker, but I enjoy this video...ha-ha.... joe
Literally was just thinking I needed to clean my Camp Chef and then see this. Excellent!
Yay for cleaning time!
Sean or Susie, does smoke escape your Camp Chef at the seam where the lid meets the bottom barrel? There's a gap along most of my grill lid where it meets the bottom and idk if it's intentionally manufactured that way or a flaw, but it causes a lot of smoke loss.
Holy cow there's all this stuff I can order!!!! Never knew about it until you mentioned store in a video. There's even something for like $50 a year.
Girl, great video. You did do a great job!!!
Thank you so much!
Great video and tips
Thank you so much Shane!
Hey Grill,
I can finally leave you a tip. Nitrile gloves! They are good for cleaning the grill and if you get cotton liners they make good warm food mitts.
I've never had grease fall through the vents. But it also doesn't make it to the grease bucket... seems to just cake on the pan.
I found that an easy way to remind how long I’m cooking is to use an app. A new one came out that works well for me called pellet grill minder.
Thanks for that one. In the back of my mind I've been telling myself it was time, this was the motivation and I picked up some good tips. Thanks!
:p I use the dishwasher for my smoker racks as well, does the trick.
Also speaking of tin foil, if you lay some flat sheets of foil over the grates then crank the cookers heat. It gets the grates super hot and makes it really easy to scrub or brush. Just be careful bc they get extremely hot.
Thanks for the tip Luke!
Todd is a lucky guy
Any more specific instructions on cleaning the temperature probe?
Great vid, I've got the same smoker and was looking for a video on a deeper clean. Could you use oven cleaner inside to get it perfectly clean?
I wouldn't use anything as harsh as oven cleaner. A decent degreaser will work fine.
Most of the other videos I've watched suggested not using metal on the grill at all. They all suggested using a plastic putty knife. I was surprised that in this video they use a metal one at all. just thinking...
Happy 4th of July
Can someone help? How do you clean the chimney? Do you take it off and clean or something else?
Hey GLOVES Hey! How do you get your hands clean after all that soot? Thanks for the great info.
Some of that automotive pumice based hand cleaner lol
What about the hopper? I have a sticky build up in there which probably means it's in the auger too.
I have an electric smoker. I always clean the grills, drip pan, and basin, but what about the sides? Should I leave them alone or try to degrease them and clean them? I'm thinking they're flavor, but maybe not. What is your advice?
That's up to you! If you feel like they need cleaning, clean them!
what if you don't have a shop vac? what else can you use?
My grates didn’t come clean in the dishwasher. I ran them through 3 times.
You want a man who looks at you the way that Todd looks at Susie❣️
What about the chimney? that's what I need and don't know... AND... I was worried about Degreaser smell and flavor Not a Problem??????
Someone told me they got a pellet grill so they didn't have to clean it like gas grills. I'll send them over here!
Any grill will get super gross if you don't do any cleaning!
Can you power wash the grill?
Sure!
Do you take the chimney off?
Camp Chef’s booklet says after 200 hours you should remove the chimney and clean it. This is for the Woodwind 24, other models will likely be the same.
@@austinw8097 Does smoke escape your Camp Chef at the seam where the lid meets the bottom barrel? There's a gap along most of my grill where the lid meets the bottom and idk if it's intentionally manufactured that way or a flaw, but it causes a lot of smoke loss.
@@Funexpected Yeah, it does. Doesn’t seem excessive to me, but this is my first grill. I’ve read a few people buying gaskets to keep that smoke in though.
@@austinw8097 Thank you for your reply. Since your CC is the same, I guess I won't seal the gap like I was considering, but lots of smoke rolls out from there during the smoke cycles.
I use a plastic Scraper, makes more sense.
Those hands :-)
Thanks 🌴🍉 jocina Kujna 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
Use gloves lady. This grease is not only messy but also cancerogenic.
No.
Carcinogenic*
