Smoking meat low and slow takes time, patience, and attention to detail.
So does deep-cleaning and degreasing your wood pellet smoker.
That’s why pitmasters who would rather spend their time crafting photo-worthy ribs, briskets, and perfect smoke rings trust GrillMaster to keep their smokers clean, safe, and ready to cook. We deal with all the grease, ash, and goo so you don’t have to.
How often should you deep clean your smoker?
In addition to routine cleaning and maintenance after every cook, your smoker needs to be deep-cleaned and degreased at least once a year — and more often depending on use and frequency.
The reason? Grease and ash buildup from all those low and slow cooks is a leading cause of grease fires.
It doesn't matter whether you're using an offset smoker, a vertical gas or electric smoker, or a classic charcoal or wood smoker. A grease fire will turn all the hours you've put into your cook to waste in seconds. Grease fires are also notorious for destroying the sophisticated electronic and mechanical components in today's wood pellet smokers.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What other grill cleaning and repair services does GrillMaster offer?
GrillMaster provides a complete range of gas grill services. In addition to grill repair and grill cleaning, our clients rely on us for gas grill safety inspections, gas grill assembly, and outdoor kitchen grill service and maintenance. Our clients also call us for expert advice about choosing and purchasing new grills. We also clean and service outdoor gas fire pits.
Is my smoker supposed to smoke all the time?
No. All smoke is not good smoke. Thick and persistent smoke is usually a sign that your wood pellet smoker is overdue for a deep cleaning and degreasing. Excessive smoke may also be due to ignition and mechanical system failures caused by grease, ash, or moisture. Humidity is notorious for turning wood pellets into gummy pulp that clogs augers and prevents proper ignition. The bottom line: Your smoker needs to be inspected to identify the underlying problem and the correct remedy.
