A few days ago as my first cook I did a whole chicken on my new mini-wsm and noticed that the juices, instead of dripping straight down, were running along the wired grates all the way to the outer edge of the grate and dripping down into the SJ kettle, missing the drip pan placed near the bottom of the tamale pot. The cooker itself was reasonably level.
What I should do perhaps is create a minor dip towards the center of the grate. Most larger sized grates have these natural dips created by the weight of the meat.
Anyone else having this problem with drippings?
