This is what I do, I use these rails and use them to put unlit charcoal on one side of the grill. I them line the bottom of the rest of the grill so the air is forced around the coals only.
You have the right idea about lighting a small amount of charcoal. I light about 15 charcoal briquets and put them on the unlit charcoal. The bottom vents are fully open and the top is about 1/2 open, the top vent controls the air flow.
Using this method (called the "minion method") I can run the grill at 250 degrees for a long time. I can't get it down to 200.
I get a lot of information off the virtualweberbullet. Even though it is primarily for the weber smoker, most of the info can be used in the griddle.
keep practicing, I make great bbq on my kettle grill.
Would the Weber Rails or the Charcoal Baskets serve the same purpose of a Slow N Sear since you can really direct high heat on one side of the grill and indirect on the other - Or would the Slow N Sear provide some additional control or benefit?
Is it the plain old kettle and not the Performer? I have the plain old kettle, and I have found the snap-on work table to be invaluable. It has plenty of room for my radio, beer, and cigar rest. I hear some people even use it as a place to put plates and stuff.
The chimney of course is the best accessory you’ll ever get. Some folks like the charcoal baskets, but I really like these for setting up direct and indirect cooking zones.
Two standard firebricks from Lowes will fit perfectly in a kettle without any cutting. You can hold them up with the Weber 7402 Charcoal Rails (looks like a 3rd-party seller has jacked up the prices, but when Amazon sells them directly they're usually around $7.50 per pair).
