Years of neglect have finally caught up to my WSM. Used primarily for grilling hot and fast, my cleanup consisted of only ensuring ash and any leftover charcoal were removed. Over time a thick crust formed which is preventing me from moving the bottom vents at all.
What would be the best method to use to get that crust off and loosen the vents? Should I just take a metal scraper to it, carefully?
My first thought was to use much power washer on it, get it completely cleaned up and start "new". Seems a bit drastic though, even if it would be the fastest way to clean it up.
If you've gone through this, how'd you handle it? Thanks.
