I also use sand in the water pan, makes for a better bark.

Even with my Lang, I still like to use the ECB. Works great for ribs and ABTs.
Yeah, it lifts off the pan. I got confused looking at all of the ECB mods online until I realized that there were different models The gourmet version (that lifts off the pan) is available at Lowes by my place for $55, and I've got a 10% coupon to use too. Not too bad for an entry into smoking.

And coming across some pics and recipes for ABTs online really made me want to give an ECB a try. Those look awesome. Hope there are some decent peppers at the grocery store this weekend
