I've been researching these two mods quite a bit and I've come to this conclusion. The mini Smokey Joe mod is the better deal. Basically it comes down to fact that the Jumbo Joe mod doesn't scale well in the conversion. Here are the numbers, based on Amazon/Target/Home Depot etc. prices. ...
Thanks a lot for the info on the stock pot. I went to an Asian market and Mexican market and none of their 60-80 qt pots fit well. I'll look into the Concord on Ebay. Myles

$20 for a 22.5" Weber kettle on Craigslist.
$6 tortilla comal from Food City in Tucson.
