If you're going to use your BGE mainly as a smoker and especially if you want to cook multiple packers, I would buy (or build)one of these. https://pitbarrelcooker.com/

I have a Large BGE and a Mini BGE and love them but when I want to smoke more than a trimmed packer I use my Weber with a Smokenator but I am seriously thinking about picking up a Barrel Smoker. They're only $269 delivered.

I do have a Woo3 and Platesetter I use often with my BGE, if I had to do it all over again I would ditch the plate setter and use a pizza stone.

YMMV and GFY.
