Counting all the butts I have cooked in my SRG's, including the last 8 I just cooked for the church fund raiser I'm at 34 butts so far and I have another 10 to go. I have not added up chicken parts and ribs (to many to try and write down)
Now when I went to the competition last year I didn't use TestRockets SRG for butts so all the cooks have been in mine.
So reason I'm pointing this out? Well just my way of saying how reliably the SRG is as a smoker/roaster and grill
Y'all know how much mine have gone through and to date I have only had to weld the bottom of one unit.
Not bad for a $199.00 cooker that has taken down a few BGE's and stick smokers
Just saying thanks to Char-Broil for a GREAT cooker!!!!!!!!!!!!!
