You should have absolutely no problem not covering the pork, especially with a pellet smoker. I do not cover anymore and I have smoked a bunch of them on my Traeger. I also have an XL BGE. I love it. As said above, space is the only issue but if you are cooking for just a small crowd, one or two meats at a time, you will be fine. The BGE is so easy to use, I don't have a guru for it. Just set the two vents and it will hold temp on one load of charcoal for 12 hours easy. I am a bug fan of the BGE.
