I just turned off my smoker and took everything out,racks,bowl,vent hood. I cleaned it the best I could and I am putting it in the dishwasher. My question was on the feeder tube inside on the part that burns it has some black residue on it and I could not get it off. I guess it was on the heating tray but it was also on the flat part right before the heating part. Also since I was just braking in my smoker should I live the residue in the smoker this time since I was seasoning it??? ALso what about next time I smoke should I clean the entire thing out and get off all the residue off?? My kinda looks gold right, I used apple chips to season it.

Thanks for all your help

never clean the inside just adds flavor, only thing you didnt do was take a rag and wipe down the door seal after each smoke, i take off the smoke genarator and blow out the saw dust and find your self a small brass wire brush to scrub the black stuff next to the puck burner, spray your racks  and the V drip pan with pam before you load the racks  it will help with clean up,
