Slow 'N Sear SnS Grills ‘n Original Insert for 22 Inch Kettle Grill, Low ‘n Smoking, Stainless Steel Charcoal Insert for Grill Cooking - Original

I had been grilling on a gas grill for the past few years, and it was getting boring. Somehow a Weber 22" kettle that I had given away years ago, ended up making its way back to me and restarted my passion back on on charcoal, wood grilling. And I had been looking around online for smoking and charcoal grilling recipes using the Weber kettle, and this "Slow 'N Sear" accessory came up a lot. I am so glad that I took the leap of faith and acquired it. After using it for a few months now, I have to say that this gadget is the single best upgrade/accessory one can get if you have a Weber 22" kettle. This "Slow 'N Sear" charcoal insert literally convert my kettle into a "smoker". I had used "the snake" method before, but I never had too good a result, and it took quite a bit of work to set that up correctly. But using this "Slow 'N Sear", my success rate is 100% start from my very first try; just put a starter at one corner, and fill up the rest of the container with charcoal, and just start the fire! With the "Slow 'N Sear", and just by controlling the air vents (air flow) from the bottom and the top, I am able to maintain stable cooking/smoking temperatures (which is a crucial thing for smoking success). One full fill of charcoals (started as mentioned above), can easily burn/smoke for 8 to 12 hours (depending on temperature). The "Slow 'N Sear" effectively split your kettle into 2 cooking zones: direct heat (searing) and indirect heat (convection); while concentrating your charcoals so that they burn hot, consistent and clean. Plus there is an integrated "water container" where you can add moisture to your cook (this helps those long smoke sessions. The end cook results are nothing short of epic (and versatile too); I can smoke for hours (16-hours texas style brisket @ 225F), or I can do reverse sear steaks (first indirect heat until the internal temperature is close to your doneness target, and then put them onto your sear zone for a quick high heat finish), or I can use high indirect heat to convection cook the perfect crispy chicken wings (with smoke). The possibility is endless! With this, there is really no need for a smoker (like a Traeger) or the other popular kettle accessory (the vortex). Right now, I am basically permanently set up my kettle to use the "Slow 'N Sear" (that is how much I love this gadget) and I tin-foiled the "indirect heat" area to funnel all the air to the bottom of the charcoal to support the burn. Get this, you won't regret it, and happy grilling/smoking! Smoked & charcoal grilled is hard to beat! My unit do become a little "wave-y" (near the water compartment) after a few high heat cooks, without having water in the water compartment, but it doesn't seems to affect the performance a bit, so I am not even going to ding them for any stars, the unit still works perfectly. Thank you for reading this review, I hoped that this review & the pictures are helpful to you in support of your purchase decision.
