I set it under the smoker a few years ago and it rusted from the humidity. So I spent a day going over all the surfaces with a wire brush. I brought the top grill inside and oiled it and set it in the oven to season it as you would any new cast iron pan.
The rest got painted nook and cranny with 1200F rustoleum paint.
I can't wait to cook a steak on it... Well, OK, I can. It's night now. But I have a DelMonico waiting to go in the evening!
