rough cold start

i have a 2011 2.4 and the first start up after sitting all night or long period of time during the day it will start and idle rough for a few seconds, the exhaust smells rich and one time at 0* it threw some smoke. after its started it runs fine and will start normal after that. the only youtube vid i found that sounded the same was a 2010 malibu that had a high alcohol content, and all it needed was an update, anyone else have the same issue?

Does this happen with key start, or only remote start?
