I read at amazingribs that Meathead recommends using a water pan to retain/control heat. I know a lot of the MES guys dont use pans because it creates too much moisture and causes creosote etc. There was another guy that mentioned his Weber gas grill got destroyed by smoking etc.
So my question - is a water pan necessary on a gas grill?
