Thanks guys!
Kingpuck: I only use it for sausage and jerky. With sausage you have a big string of links twisted together, so I just drape them over the re-bar (same idea for jerky). As far as a door, I just take the lid off to pull the meat out, but i have a door in the bottom so i can keep the fire stoked. If you cut a door in you will have to reinforce it, because it doesn't maintain the shape of the can. Hope that answers your question.
