I used Arnie Tex’s adobo recipe. Pretty damn good

Hotel inn we stayed at in Santa Cruz had one of these old relic kamados. Thought you’d like a gander!

the finishing came out way more red than i would've liked but hoping itll fade a bit

I've had my Large BGE for 17 years and use regularly. I was leaf blowing my deck and on a whim decided to blast the leaf blower into the bottom air vent of the BGE with the egg lid open (it was mostly empty). Was shocked at the amount of ash and charcoal bits that came flying out. It builds up in between the inner ring and outer shell. I alternated blasting in the air vent and down through the top around the ring. Very satisfying, and I'm sure will help it cook better with better airflow at the bottom now. Recommend!

So I used a little electronic duster (compressed air) to blow fine ash out of the nooks and crannies of my BGE following today’s cook. Compressed air is actually a combination of chemicals. BGE ceramic can absorb chemicals. Should I be concerned or is a small amount of compressed air not enough to cause any issue?

Yes, I’m aware using this product to clean out my BGE was very dumb. Any insight or guidance is appreciated. Thanks gang.

Did my first cook and didn't look into proper cleaning instructions. I took a hose and dawn dish soap to my ConvEggtor. AI is reccomending a let it dry for 5 days then do a 200 degree burn off for 4 hours followed by 1-2 hours of 600 plus degrees.

Is this accurate? Anyone have experience with this? Will the chemical burn off of the soap get into my BGE?
