Since Brinkman is no longer selling parts, does anyone have an alternate source for a shallower water pan for the 18.5 WSM? Thanks.

Knock off Brinkman parts are still made.

A lot of people, myself included, use a clay saucer or pizza stone rather than a water pan.

JR, does the clay saucer act as a heat sink or would it be similar to foiling the water pan dry.

Correct on both Dustin. I went with a pizza stone because I didn't like how close the bottom of the water pan was to the charcoal when I had a full load in for a long cook. I put my wood on when the meat goes on and it made adding the wood a little tricky. Just a personal preference.
