Indirect Smoking

What are some thoughts on indirect smoking? Does it produce the same quality as reverse flow smoking? e.g. Big Green Egg

Indirect smoking?  Are you meaning with no heat directly under the meat?  If so, there is no problem doing it and excellent results will occur.

Yes, like just a plate over the coals instead of a maze for the smoke to go around. Any problems with flare-ups or heat variance, does this cause the coals to burn faster or hotter? Quality of end product is the same?
