Lewzephyr-

Before you buy the Bandera try this (as suggested by another NB owner
on this list):

Add a few cooking grates under the ones you already have. The currently
unused space below could easily fit two boston butts, some ribs,
chickens or 1 brisket.

At least then you'd have some flexibility as to how much to cook
without heating the extra (vertical) cooking space in the Bandera and
spending the extra $$ to upgrade.

HTH,
