You mentioned the paint peeling, did you season the grill first? I went over with olive oil everywhere on it and let smoke for a good 2 hours at 250ish.
No, just the grates. I've never seasoned the outside of one before. I will do the inside though with a high temp oil like canola here at some point. Need to seal it and I think I'm going to layer the bottom with aluminum foil to direct the heat.
Thought about running it real hot for a while and letting it peel and going over it with a high temp paint...
