putting painters tape over the vents when storing. Brilliant! Thanks Ry.

[@mccardieclan1755]

Thanks for the information. The glass can be cleaned with wood ash, it is a little abrasive but will remove the blackened buildup quite well.

[@VansWorld]

That’s like the smoker I use for my jerky making process except mine is Bluetooth controlled. 👍😁 I use apple cider vinegar to clean it with.

Oven cleaner and a water hose be shining like new

[@TheOwen1974]

Ry, I use a vinegar/ lemon juice blend in a spray bottle.It works amazing, that glass window will shine like new. Try it maybe in another video.

[@CookingWithRy]

Good idea :)

[@jlh02005]

Do you know if you wrap that shelf with aluminum foil I wouldn’t get that bad

[@normanmartinezscooter]

50 / 50 distilled white vinegar and water with a non abrasive scrubber will clean that glass to like new!

[@CookingWithRy]

The funny thing is, it never bothered me because I never looked in. Then my wife cleaned it and, I kinda like it. Until it gets dirty again and then I won't care :)

[@megaricus4622]

I have this smoker. I find it super easy to clean the glass with a razor blade. just spray some water or vinegar to loosen it up then use a razor blade. it will come out clear again.

[@CookingWithRy]

It never really bothered me. But it bothered my wife who cleaned it recently :)

[@FatsCaton]

If it's molded should I throw away? 😊

[@TenSyc]

I find the easiest way to clean my smoker when its looking really rough is paste made of baking soda and vinegar, paint it on with a brush and let it sit for about an hour and then wipe it up with a throw away towel.

[@CookingWithRy]

My mom used to use that same method on our old oven when I was young :)

[@Gunzee]

Not criticism but I never got this, you're mixing an acid with a base. Essentially cancelling each other out.
Meat fat is acidic so a weak base on its own would be better. Sodium bicarb, bleach or ammonia based cleaners.

Great

[@stracysteele281]

Good information

[@EarWormSound]

That hole in the middle, where does that go? Some grease went down that hole, is there a way to get at it? Thanks! Great video

[@CookingWithRy]

Not that I know of.

[@EarWormSound]

@@CookingWithRy Wonder where it goes :). I'll check in with CharBroil guys

[@stracysteele281]

Good

[@larrykeesee1442]

I use a single edge razor blade...Retired Larry.....

[@pozmarciv]

Probably can clean the window with vinegar and water

[@hofstra65]

you can clean the glass with an even mixture of water distilled vinegar and ammonia green scotch bright or equivalent not the crazy abrasive kind

[@CookingWithRy]

+Brandon Hofstra I did something like that once, then it got dirty again and I decided I didn't need to see in :)
