Pic – Cleaning your CS with easy off oven cleaner | Cookshack

elMember

I was working today in Lower Manhattan (draft beer industry.. install and maintain draft systems).
When I went to a new customer I noticed the CS in the kitchen. They are not a BBQ restaurant but they have a few smoked items on the menu (pulled pork taco, baby back ribs).
First thing I noticed was how spotless the smoker was. I asked one of the guys in the kitchen, how do you keep it so clean.
He said, we clean it with easy off oven cleaner after every use…. I asked why would you do that, he said that’s always how we have done it.

thanks

sorry, here is the pic

What model is this? Can anyone tell by just looking at the pic?

I did not tell them about forum. I mentioned about seasoning the smoker and not cleaning it. Plus how chemicals are a bad idea.

response, "this is how we have always done it"

That unit appears to be a 160.

Hope you clued them in on maintenance procedures.
