Hi, I've had my CS since the middle of January. My family and I have enjoyed pork butts and spare ribs so far. Most of my pork butts i have started around 10 pm. and were done the following afternoon 2-3 pm. After letting the unit cool off some, which doesn't take long during Minnesota winters. I use the H.D. foil on the bottom and over the wood box, but some pork fat still gets on the bottom of the unit. What has worked well for me is an old credit card to scrape off the excess fat. Thanks CookShack for a great unit.
