I have a friend who is ready to pull the trigger on either a Camp Chef or SmokeFire. He's a 'Weber Guy', but initially wasn't interested in the SmokeFire because of all the technical issues early on. Knowing that the tech has been addressed, as well as some of the mechanics, he's considering the SmokeFire but has concerns around the reports of 'grease fires'. Research I've done points to long cooks with fatty things like butts and brisket. Seems drip pans are a simple way to address that and would make things far less messy. Any suggestions/advice? Any sites with recent discussion on this topic? I can't tell if it really is an issue, or is more 'user error'.
