How to choose

Charcoal baskets are the cheapest meaningful upgrade to a kettle. They hold the coals in a defined bank instead of letting them sprawl, which is the difference between a two zone fire that lasts an hour and one that flattens in twenty minutes.

Insert systems go further, walling the coals into a quarter of the bowl with a water reservoir alongside, which turns any kettle into a genuinely controllable low and slow cooker.
