Do yourself a favor and get the vortex...trust me and the others who have said it.

I got the baskets when I picked up the kettle and it came with the deluxe cooking grate. Vortex and cast iron sear grate is on the way.
Will never replace the BGE, offset or chicken cooker, but it will be put to good use.

I just got off a houseboat in the North Woods, 4 nautical hours from civilization. I brought my trusty old style Jumbo Joe (18 1/2 inch portable kettle) along for the ride. I did a pork shoulder, a whole chicken and potatoes, and beer brats with onions. As I type I have 2 racks of baby backs smoking with a little cherry wood on my 22 1/2 inch green kettle. Kettles are so versatile and fun. You have to be careful not to chase $400-$1500 bright and shiny objects that might tempt one to stray. Other than picking up a used 26 or Ranch someday, I have been set for years.

You only have one? I have a green one, a gold one and a blue one still in the box ( I missed out on the red ones)
