I recently upgraded to a serious smoker, deciding on the Meadow Creek box smoker, BX-50. Looked perfect, had great reviews, however, it has been so far unusable. The paint inside and out cannot stand up to temps more than 350 degrees, constantly flaking off. I scrub and scrub between fires but it keeps coming. Tried meat a couple times but paint flakes adhere to to the meat, fouling it and making it inedible. With all the paint flaking off and ambient moisture in air, the entire inside is rusting like crazy. Spent my weekend trying to scrub off rust... At the price point for these MC's smokers, this should not happen.
Any others out there with similar issues with this smoker? Do I just suck it up, continue to scour the inside and apply my own high heat fire place paint? If so, recommendations?
