Here is a recent thread where we talked about injecting.

OK, the content of your link has me feeling better about the skin on method (not to detract from the others in this thread that have recommended the same). I normally cook 300*ish give or take in my drum, so cooking with it down around 250* would definitely be some uncharted territory for me. I'm sure I could do it but it might require some fiddling on a cook that long. My other thought would be my Primo kamado, still get the fat on diffuser and coal flavor with the option for me to just hook up the Flameboss to it and let it do its thing.

My clonesaker drum runs pretty efficiently and even at 300* I dont have the intake or exhaust open that much, so if we're talking about airflow differences between a drum and kamado, in this case I'm not sure there'd be a huge difference. Could be wrong though.
