First thoughts upon receipt and assembly was just how solid and sturdy this cooker is. It’s only been 2 weeks since I received , but so far I’ve been able to produce perfectly crispy skin chicken thighs, spatchcocked whole chickens, and out of the ballpark Tacos Al Pastor with the rotisserie attachment from Chuds. Can’t wait to get my hands on a picnic roast, or skin-on pork belly. Has the feel of the full size Chud-like boxes, but this is the perfect footprint for the home bbq’er. Great addition to my backyard arsenal. Love my purchase!
