Condensation and brown liquid drip from the door or around the hinges.

Safety first: Use gloves when handling greasy components.

• Clean interior surfaces: Wipe down the inside of the door and top panel to remove grease that can mix with condensation.
• Check drip channels: Some Smokehouse models have channels to direct condensation; clean these with a brush to ensure proper flow.
• Adjust water pan usage: Use less water or remove the pan for certain cooks to reduce condensation.
• Improve door seal: Inspect and replace the door gasket if steam escapes heavily at the top.
