Having gone through the complete mods on my "cheap" Chargriller w/sidebox, these less expensive cans are obviously lighter guage steel. I've found later in the Fall, that wrapping the top half of the can with foil face duct insulation helps hold in the heat also. Putting an expanded metal basket in the sidebox, and making all the changes/baffle/tuning plates made all the difference in the world, and yes, get that sand out to get air up under your fuel (plus will provide more room for ash). Follow those directions and the cheap box will do a bang up job for you.
