Used this for a 50 lb. pig at a NASCAR race. First of all the bottom grates are useless, pitch them and get some cast iron grates off an old stove. Works much better. Since there was no electric I used an 800 watt inverter for the rotisserie. That worked flawlessly. Would have liked to have something on the bottom to remove the ashes, or possibly a drip pan, but these are minor issues. It worked very well and worth the price.
