Hi Kevin! I'm thinking about purchasing this Only Fire ring. Are you pleased with how it works as both a pizza oven and a rotisserie? I believe earlier models didn't fit really well with the Weber kettle and made regulating temps a problem. Are there any problems with that now?
The fitment is a little on the loose side but the main part that I noticed is the holes where the rotisserie rod goes into and out of the ring to create a little extra air that goes through making it a little bit more difficult to regulate the temperatures as far as for a pizza oven it works amazing the rotisserie takes a little bit of getting used to but other than that if you set your calls up right and don't put too many in there you will be fine I have learned with it that a little bit of charcoal goes a long way you can always add more but it's hard to take it out. I do think for the price you really can't beat it it is a fun addition to a Weber barbecue I actually use the ring adapter portion for slow cooking as well I used to grill grates and I put a heat deflector on the lower section creating kind of a Komodo style barbecue.
You may be able to try and set it up like a smoker. However the ring isn't that tall. I have put a rack on the top of that ring and set ribs up there and try to use it as a smoker it works okay however you have to set it up for indirect heat correctly I made a makeshift deflector part of my barbecue to block heat. Sorry for the late response hope this helps.
Yeah I really love the product. I don't even go out to eat for pizza anymore. For the price you just can't beat it I've also used it in other ways to make my Weber into a giant smoker with a heat deflector it works great.

Can you put grates in this and use it as a smoker kinda like a Weber smokey mountain? Thanks for the review
