Clean? Do you mean the racks and water pan? Are you talking about one of these?

I don't think they're much of a hassle. I clean the racks and pan
whenever I'm ready to smoke
something, and just carry the meat out on the racks. Haven't gotten any
food poisoning yet.

I guess I don't like to store them with bits of meat on them. I also
like to get most of the crud out of the can itself.

I've not noticed any crud in the can itself. Maybe I just try to keep my
meat centered a bit more.

I have an offset smoker. Not he electric can and rack smoker. Small fire
box on the end, and an about 30 gallon barrel where the meat sits. So
smoke and hear get to the meat, but is not over a fire. And keep the temps
low in the offset part.
