    Did the KAB hold enough lump for the entire cook? I have a small with a KAB and have wondered about that.

    No science behind this comment... Id think the KAB will help you maintain temps due to air flow not being restricted.  With the factory grate, I'd suspect you'll see swings in temp due to the air flow being choked off.  

    It it will definitely be interesting if you can compare the cooks.

    Either way the food will be great!
    I think you are correct in the air flow is not being restricted, but at the same time I think it's allows for wind guest and such to affect the oxygen flow as well creating a hotter fire.

    Yes, I had enough lump for the duration of the cook.  It was pretty late by the time I finished up so I did not get to see how much was left.  I will check it out this evening and post a picture.  I filled it all the way to the top of the fire ring.  I believe the plate setter was actually sitting on the lump for a while and not the ring.
