Drip tray suggestions under 22” cooking grate?

[wahoowad]

Doing my first smoke on my new 22” Performer - a rack of beef back ribs. Coals are banked on one side with 2 firebricks as a heat barrier. I thought I would slip a medium sized cookie tin under it but there wasn’t enough room. As a temporary measure I just put down a piece of tinfoil, not very well shaped though so might have some runoff.

Any standard size pans or foil trays that are known to fit well? In the near future I expect to make a Bro’n’Sear out of 2 Weber baskets so anything known to fit next to that is probably best.

SnS has a drip tray/griddle that works well for indirect cooking.  Just pull it out if the kettle and wash.  I enjoy mine.

Another cheaper alternative would be to buy a cheap pizza pan and modify it to fit in the grill with a basket.

Do what ReanimatedRobot suggested or..............even cheaper.............buy a few dollar store foil pans, shape to fit the space, and toss when done.

Or............as I 'el Cheapo' do.............foil them and re-use.

Heavy duty wide roll aluminum foil is all I use. Works great and no clean up.

I’ve never used fire bricks either. Not necessary.

Around two(2) years ago I bought one with a SlowNSear Plus and I today remain one-happy SlowNSear Customer.

Heavy duty foil. It can be shaped to anything you need.

I use a Big Green Egg elevated half moon drip pan, it pairs nicely with the SnS.  If I didn’t have that I’d probably opt for ABC’s porcelain coated Drip N’ Roast pan. 

I wish ABC made a drip pan for the 26 to pair with the SnSXL.

I thought that's what the ash pan was for! Lol

I use 3 bricks w/ holes in them (for air circulation) between my Weber charcoal baskets and a small water pan for a lot of cooks, but more for heat retention than a barrier

[emoji23] I don't line my kettles with foil either.
Let it drip in the ash pan or ash can. I give the bowl a quick razor scrape after 10 or so cooks. 4 razor blades is cheaper than all that foil. I do wrap up my water pan in the Wsm because I  run it dry and is much easier to clean up that way.

Sns and a cheap foil turkey pan. I do also have a sns drip pan that I wrap in foil as well...

+1 on the HD foil.  Easy cleanup.  Costco sells 150 yard rolls in two packs.

When I have had a surplus of disposable aluminum  pans I bend one to fit. If not, I use the heavy duty foil.
I need to get my firebricks out of the  shed and dust them off...some of the best "low and slow" that I ever made was on a daisy wheel kettle with bricks and foil as my only accessories.

98 % of the time i forget any form of drip tray, and thus I break out the razor and clean up the grill every so often
