Charlie, Gregg's absolutely right; a water pan does NOT cause soggy bark! With hundreds of SI smokes in my belly, I can tell you that I have never failed to have nothing but good, thick, chewy bark on my Q. Water pans don't steam your meat, they just add a slight amount of moisture to the meat.
But, you know what? There are no "right" or "wrong" answers in BBQ!! 8) We'll have healthy discussions, and push/support/prove/disprove our opinions and positions, but it's all in good spirit! We don't get personal, which should be refreshing to most that have been on some other forums where they do.
So, everyone should do what works for them, not what works for me, or anyone else! I take it all in, evaluate the merits of the information, and make my own decisions. Most of all, I try to have a good time, whether debating or smoking some killer Q!
