Am considering purchasing an 18 to go with my 22.  Can you effectively cook with a two zone fire on an 18, or would I really only be cooking direct?  For example, can I cook a 4-5 pound chicken indirect on an 18?

You can.... here's a shot of mine with the SNS stainless charcoal basket.  Probably need to put foil under the indirect zone.

The 18 is a handy size to take places. It will fit standing up in the back of an suv. Needs tied down though.

Also I will spread the coal even and fill the cooking grate with wings. You have to flip and rotate but does a great job and can do 40 wings.

I just smoked a 6lb pork booty on my 18 and it came out perfect used the snake method.

Thanks for all relies.  I guess no reason NOT to get an 18, right!

That's why there are either divorce lawyers or shoe stores!!! 8)

Gonna need me one of those SNS stainless charcoal baskets...and go for some shoe shopping pronto. Not enough dough for the divorce lawyer.

I wonder if anyone has ever had a combination divorce lawyer offices and shoe store.
