I bought this grill a few month ago. Cooking on the grill like this is more of an art form. It took me a couple of burns without food to get the temperature regulated correctly. Once I got that figured out I realize that there’s a lot more to it like humidity of your fuel plays a factor in burn times and temp. I try and cook on my grill at least once a week it is a total blast the food is absolutely amazing.  It is my goal to master this girl I feel like once you master this grill there is an a grill that you can’t run. You won’t be disappointed in the purchase
