Just a thought- maybe check around for a used Stok kettle grill. There's a pretty good "vortex" in them.







This is what I did, works perfectly!

I had one and used it until I gave my STOK grill away and can third the recommendation of the STOK Charcoal insert.  However I'll reiterate, the two charcoal baskets you probably own or should own if you own a Weber Kettle work just as good and there's one less accessory you need to find a spot for.

I found these stainless steel pots at Meijer the other day. The larger pot bottom is 8" across the top is 12" across and the tapered part is 5". I believe the Vortex is the same. With tax $34.00. I did not measure the small pot.

I'm sure all the above ideas will work. Let me just say, the up front cost is well worth it. I own two original design carbon steel ones, and two stainless steel ones. All are still in perfect working order, and have had them for years. They are made of heavy gauge metal. Think about it being another tool in the belt. Working on cars, I never skimped on tools. Working in the kitchen and BBQ, likewise. Spend the money.
Multiple kettles and WSM's. I am not a collector, just a gatherer... and a sick bastard.
