I have a home made wooden smokehouse. It's set up all summer and I want to clean it before I start using it this fall and winter. It's got a lot of dust, soot, spider's & webs and other ugly things inside.
I'm thinking pressure washer then a rinse with a bleach or vinegar solution. Any suggestions??

I think a leaf blower might be a bad idea.

I'd knock everything down with a brush then spray it down with 1 part vinegar to 3 parts water. Give it an hour 2 smoke then get back at it.

I would sweep it out - walls roof, but not floor and then like Balls said, light a smoky fire and go back to work. Someone said use a leaf blower and that might work, too. What you do to the floor depends on how you did it - dirt, cement, blocks? if dirt, I would do nothing except remove ashes. If you do your fire in a bucket, then just empty the ashes.
