This is not an attempt to reduce cost. I exported my CS to Costa Rica for my restaurant. I did my best effort to research import regulations for wood, and found no restrictions. But my load of 600 lbs of wood was impounded by customs under the guise that the wood needed to be "heat treated". My choices were to spend 6 months appealing the ruling or make a hefty donation to his kids "educational fund". Guess what I did? Time for 2nd load. I am told that "wood pellets" are not subject to requirement for "heat treating" with stamped government certification. Yes, if I would have known, I would have purchased an FC. Any way to use pellets in SM without ruining meat or require any burner mods?
Thanks for suggestions.
