IMO Kettle Pizza sits in the grill better, the lid doesnt fit great on the PizzaQue.  Both cook well but I think the Que holds a high temp for longer.

I have que and friend has kp. Both do exactly the same thing imo. Fit and finish is nicer on kp like Webb said, but I like that the grill grate is not used on the que and adding fuel is easier.

The PQ fits fine on the kettle....and the kettle lid fits fine on the PQ.  It does not fit well on some performers. 

I have the PQ and enjoy using it...but from what I can see, the KP is a sturdier product, and I can say that the PQ is a little flimsy.  So other than the Made in USA, it is probably made with better materials.
I like my Kettles like my coffee....strong and black.

I might go the pizzaque route for the adding fuel feature.

Looks like the open stone "shelf" bottom still holds the stone vs the pizza kettle rack.




When you guys use em, does it really need 10 lbs of charcoal as the YouTube Pizzaque instructional video shows??

Seems like a lot of charcoal..

I use 2 chimneys....pour the lit chimney in, then the unlit over that, then I use 3 chunks of wood, one on each pile of charcoal.  It will easily sustain temps of 700+ degrees for an hour...after which there is still plenty of charcoal burning, but temps will drop in the 600+ range.
