I have been using 9x13 foil pans sometimes 2 next to one another. Looking for what you all use to best contain drippings.
looking for something I trash after the cook and don't want to spend a ton on them.
thanks for any ideas
i also have a MM so ideas for that also would help

Don't really use them but ceramic grill store has one that looks pretty sweet“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

I make my own from XL foil

I got the tip here on the forum, I use a 20 inch, water heater drip pan. Got it at Home Deport for about $15. It has a drain hole on the side that I patched over with JB Weld. It fits inside the legs of the platesetter and overlaps the edge by about 1/2 inch. It is about 1/2 taller than the PS legs, but the grate sits on it in a very stable position. I really got tired of using Large and Medium aluminum pans and having hangover when cooking 4 or more butts. The 20 inch drip pan is large enough that 4 ten pound butts are never in direct heat.

Titusville, Fl. and just bought XL and Med BGE. "Every Day is A Bonus" in my world, and my job is to choke the life out of them. Cancer Sucks. -
I use both 18" round and 13x18" half sheet pan, take a look at this thread. The rectangle one is great for whole brisket or two racks of ribs flat.

Been using XL foil as well.

I use round HD aluminum foil serving trays. Low profile, cheap and cover a lot of space.
I get one size for the XL and a smaller version for the MM. Clean reuse, over and over."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

Used to cover the plate setter in foil. Now I just shovel the hardened grease off of it. Never had any complaints of a funky taste.

I use a 21.5 inch "Webber" cooking gride covered in food as my drip pan. It works welll. I purchased it at minarets so it's a knockoff, it was $8-10 a few years ago. The best part it that the 2 areas that are supposed to be hinges do not open but have the little hanged so the work as feet to raise it up a little off of the ps.XL BGE, KJ classic, Joe Jr, UDS x2

I bought a case of these 18" foil pans from the Webstaurant store. They are very sturdy, not too high, and they seem to last a while. I can pour out liquid grease or scrape out solidified stuff, and then chuck them when they get a bit old. The case of 25 works out to $1.49 each. They are also good party trays.XL BGE in San Jose, CA. Also a Pit Barrel Cooker, a Cal Flame P4 gasser, and lots of toys including the first ever Flame Boss 300 in the wild. And a new Flame Boss 500.
