Use my Performer for indirect cooking almost exclusively, I use my Weber E320 for direct grilling, I also had an electric smoker that I started out smoking on and used occasionally for longer cooks. Started using the Performer more and more for smoking because I liked the results even though it is more labor intensive and just gave the electric smoker to a friend.
I get great results smoking on the Performer but I want to get a more user friendly setup so I don't have to baby sit the cook as much especially on longer cooks like a Brisket or large Boston Butt. So I'm thinking of either buying a WSM 18.5 or ordering the CB stacking kit with heat diffuser and charcoal ring.
For those that have used the Stacker on a Kettle is it as user friendly as a WSM and what are the advantages of one over the other? I know I'll save a couple of bucks going with the CB Stacker but that isn't an issue.
Thanks in advance.
