    As a newbie, I'm seeing photos of different smoking styles. Can you help me understand when it's best to use foil or a pan vs. directly on the grate? I know using a disposable pan would catch all the melted fat and make clean up easier. Is there any other benefit?

If it ran out and was dry wouldn't you have to pour water from the top and through the grates of food to refill the water pan? Not to mention having the lid stand open that long... Is this a problem? Thanks again!
