Yes thanks to both of you gentleman, for the amount of cooks ill do for slow cooking i think that just taking off the catcher be alot easier and i have a roll heat tape, Dont want to really screw up a new Kettle lol. Might just decide to get the smokenator instead cheaper and dont have to fiddle around . I have smoked w/ coals on side and worked for me ribs, shoulder and my fav Meat loaf smoked lol'
