Tough lesson learned!

It is highly advised not to put anything with any amount of structural strength on the top racks of your rotisserie FEC.

Here is why:
I threw a deep warmer pan in that fit within the rack with no overhang. No problem right? Wrong. Loaded the FEC with over $500 worth of meat stepped outside for a few minutes and walked in to a catastrophe. Although the pan fit on the rack it was a little too tall. The rack trailing it lifted it off and dropped it into the bottom of the smoker. It landed at a perfect angle, and as every rack came around it dumped every one of their content. I walk in to find a total loss, and Saturday being with no product to sell. If you think it could be close I highly recommend rolling a full pass with the door open before walking away. This is embarrassing, and frustrating. I just wanted to share, so that it doesn't happen to you.

Yup,

had that problem on other rotisseries. Many won't allow you to put 4" pans on the top rack for that very reason.

Not always something known, but I sorted it out when I first got my FEC, I put empty pans on there to figure it out.

Sorry about the loss.

Thanks for sharing!
