    I just purchased one of these. Your video was very helpful. I now know how to flatten the pig and I'm glad you showed wiring the cage together. I just couldn't see how the four s hooks they provided were going to hold 60 lbs. Have you ever tried cooking ribs in the la caja china? I would like to try, but I don't know if I should use rib racks or the cage. THX
