LBGE sweating what looks like grease

im doing a burnout to clean things up and it looks like grease is seaping out of the ceramic in some spots. Is this from not using a drip pan over the years?

    Normal.  No worries.  You can pretty it up tomorrow.  Proves good work over the years.

    Last time mine did that, it rained the next day (before I had even tried to clean it) and cleaned it up quite nicely. Didn't have to lift a finger.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

  • not sure if you have caught on, but i don't think fishless has ever, in maybe 15 years, posted on a weekend.

    dude has other priorities.  ;)

    I didn't mean fishless himself, if memory serves I've seen that famous photo posted by others almost every time topic/question on oozing egg came up!

    actually, an egg used heavily every weekend for low and slows, and then one day fish decided to go hot
