The handle says "KENMORE".

Yup . Sold by Sears under the Kenmore name . Mine says " Happy Cooker " on the handle and said Kenmore on the wheels . I picked mine from the neighbors in the '90's . They got it as a wedding gift in 1974 . The Weber parts cross over . I need to get a set of legs and ash pan for mine , someday .

The Cooker is a good design. I liked the internal ash catcher much more than the external one.
Mine is the econo model. They had two kettles, mine was around $30, in 1979. The upgrade model was more, maybe $35 or $38.

Thanks for all of the kind comments. This was an experiment, having never smoked or grilled a pork loin before.
Now I think we can improve on these results, with a little tweaking next time...bacon wrap!

If you're open to injecting , get some Tony C's injection . Pump it full and let it sit over night , then smoke as you did .

I liked the internal ash catcher much more than the external one.

Mine still had the internal one when I got it . Good shape too , but I ended up tossing it for some stupid reason .
Yours is in great shape .

Yes, I am open to ideas. Injection could be an option next time.
Thanks!

Here is my favorite comfort sandwich...grilled pork loin with cheese!
Slice the loin paper thin, if you can.
