Finally got over covid and had a decent weekend to smoke. First smoke on my brand new Limo Jr. Got it seasoned and loaded up four butts last night.
With temp running a stable 230 or so, after about 8 hours I noticed a couple of black tar looking drips running down the side from under the charcoal chute/smoker top seam (not the chute cover area, but below) down to the diamond plate on the side, and the entire diamond plate drip guard piece over the firebox door was spit-sizzling hot. That doesn't seem right.
Picture attached is sideways.
Have any other Limo Jr. owners out there seen this diamond plate piece too hot to touch? Or does it stay relatively cool?
Any help or feedback would be appreciated from the Limo Jr. crowd.
