Brinkmann 812-0002-0 Smoker Charcoal Water Pan, 15-Inch Review

Customer Ratings:

I bought this water pan to be used in my 18.5" Weber Smokey Mountain. I have an older WSM that came with the dinky water pan that holds about 1 gallon of water, I believe it's the lid from a Weber Smokey Joe grill (their small kettle).

The original water pan really puts a blemish on the operating ability of the WSM as you constantly will be topping off the water in the pan every 3-4 hours. If you are doing a long cook such as a 12+ pound brisket this can be a bit of an annoyance.

Luckily, the Brinkmann part fits into the 18.5" WSM like it was designed specifically for it! Fits better than the original pan and holds double the amount of water.

The weber smokey mountain is a great smoker but the bowl is a bit too deep, making it difficult to add coals during cooking. This bowl fits perfectly and is slightly shallower so it solves that problem. This one isn't all that well made...uneven paint, etc...but that doesn't matter since it only has to hold water while cooking. I figure it may rust in a few years and I'll just buy another or use the original weber bowl.

The first item was totally dented and the paint was chipped even though the box was intact. The second item was in good shape, paint chipped in a couple of spots where the white primer is showing. I suppose this will get me a couple more years of smoker usage.

Don't waste your time or money. This arrived along with the water pan for my husband's birthday and both were badly chipped and coating was all bubbled. Cannot believe they would ship anything out like this. Thanks for ruining my husband grilling for his birthday!
