So when do you use a drip-pan on a kettle

At this point I cook almost everything using the indirect method. I leave the drip pan in until it gets too gunky, and then I replace it. When cooking indirect, the fat doesn't burn up on the coals and builds up in the bottom of the kettle. Without a drip pan, the clean up would be a constant, dirty, pain in the butt.

I use indirect in about all my grilling. I have the Weber charcoal holders and double up the pans. I double up the pans so they're a little stronger. I add a glass or two of water.
When I'm finished I just pour the water out, dry the pan off with a paper towel and used it again. I use the Weber pans and get several cooks out of one pan. When the top pan becomes too flimsy I throw it a way and add another pan. The water is primarily used to keep the pan from gunking up so quickly.
