Recommended purchase list for anyone taking the plunge:
-Full size PBC (nothing wrong with the Jr but the full size is the best option)
-Ash pan
-Hinged grate (OK4P disagrees, but I love it) Can hang ribs or chicken and still use the grate to cook beans/corn/brats/burgers/etc. Then you just flip it over for a full grate. I don't see myself ever using the regular one again.
