It will probably vary depending on the type of smoker. I have an ECB and I can place mine on the ground far enough away from the smoker that it won't melt. I run my probe lead under the lid. I thought about coming down from the vent, but that will make it more difficult when removing the lid.

I know, I know. No q-view ... didn't happen.
The wife was gone Sat night with the camera and I really didn't want to wait until she got back on Sun to smoke.
For the SB, I made up 4 fatties (sorry, no q-view). Two of them were my "usual" fatties stuffed with mushrooms and cheddar cheese (my wife's favorite). But the other two I decided to experiment with.
For the first one, I fried up 3 strips of bacon on the stove. After they cooled, I crumbled...
Yeah, I shouldn't have questioned the smoking part, just the direct/indirect part.
Didn't realize there was such a gap there from that angle. Any thoughts to adding a layer of something to make it more indirect?
Regardless (and since I didn't point it out in my first post), the food looks GREAT!
In your 3rd pic (labeled " 4 hr's, looking good, LOVE that Mesquite....."), we can see the coals from the overhead shot. Looks more like grilling than smoking. Am I missing something?
