MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE (continued)
AS NEEDED:
(Frequency will depend on usage and local health department’s requirements):
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES:
Use non-abrasive cleaning products for use on stainless steel surfaces. Cleaning agents must be chloride-free
compounds and must not contain quaternary salts. Never use hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid) on stainless
steel surfaces. Always use the proper cleaning agent at the manufacturer’s recommended strength.
EXTERIOR:
Southern Pride BBQ Smokers are known for their attractive appearance. We achieve this by selecting only the
finest grade of type 304 stainless steel and applying exacting workmanship.
 All of the exterior of the smoker can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution.
 Before cleaning the smoker, make sure it is turned off, main power switch off, and power cord disconnect-
ed from power.
 On mobile smokers, turn off LP gas.
 If the smoker is HOT from use, allow adequate time for it to cool down (approximately 1 hour).
 After the smoker exterior has been washed, apply a stainless steel polish cleaner to all surfaces.
 Wipe control panel, door handles, and door gaskets thoroughly, since these areas harbor food debris.
 Do not use scotch bright pads or scouring pads to clean the outside of your smoker. If a non-
abrasive scouring pad must be used, make certain to scrub with the visible grain of the surface metal
to avoid scratches.
Caution: Some cleaning products are not suitable for stainless steel; be sure to read the label before use.
