Refresh my memory on what grill you're using?

Chargrill Akorn, it's a Komodo style smoker. Steel exterior with ceramic lining. Basically a cheaper green egg.

I did some Santa Maria style tri tip over the weekend and it turned out amazing. Tonight I'm smoking an elk and bison meatloaf. I should have bought a Traeger years ago.

I generally agree re: oil the meat not the grate.

I oil my cast iron grate to prevent rusting.

I use rendered beef fat "beef love" when I sear instead of oil. Most butchers will give you beef fat trimmings and not charge you for it. Throw it in a pan, melt it down and throw the globs away that do not render down. You can freeze what you do not use and thaw it out for the next time.

I have a new wood pellet grill coming. This will be its first try out. Doesn't look like much now but in 3 more days this will be Lamb Pastrami.

This is more about oiling immediately prior to cooking by heating up the grill and wiping oil on the grates. Something you often see advocated with a paper towel, or union cut in half, etc.

I use grape seed oil when pit is cold be for lighting, then after cool down and grate scrub.
