I have been kicking around the idea a buying a PBC or a Gateway Drum, mainly to hang ribs but also to try other cooks based on all the positive things I hear about them. I looked at the Gateway drums yesterday at a local supplier and it doesn't seem like there is much of a true difference in capacity between them and the 22 inch Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM) I already own. Curious to hear from some folks that have converted their WSM's over the hang meat and have done some side by side comparisons between it and a PBC or a Gateway Drum. Is it basically the same or is there an advantage to one or another based on how the air moves in the cooking chamber? I checked out the Hunsaker Vortex Charcoal Basket as an option and that seems like a nice set up so any experience with your WSM conversions would be appreciated as well. Thanks for your feedback and sharing your experiences.
I added a picture of the ribs I am cooking today because everyone likes pictures.
