That’s a great idea. Thanks!Dirtytires wrote: ↑March 5th, 2021, 10:41 amA water tray will catch some drippings but it is not going to prevent grease from dripping into your firebox. And it definitely is not going to magically put out a fire....
Clean out your pit and remove the racks. Grab a hose and put a half inch of water in your baffle plate then open the firebox door and, with a flashlight, see where the water is dripping thru. Mark it, drain the water and weld the holes shut. Just make sure you test it again to make sure you got the right areas. You should be able to let your smoker sit full of water overnight and still have a dry firebox in morning.
