Packer too large
I bought a packer and it is too large for my smoker. Can I drape it over an inverted aluminum pan? Any other suggestions? How much should it shrink and then do I pull the pan? Yea, small smoker not huge packer. Thanks.

Yep. Drape it over something. I've used a stainless steel mixing bowl. A rib rack works, too. It will shrink a fair amount. Remove the pan/bowl/rib rack once it looks like the packer has shrunk enough to fit.
You could also separate the point and flat and it may fit better, but I prefer to cook a packer whole.
