I've wanted to try this on a weber 22 kettle.
Buy a 20 in pizza pan ( cheap)
Make a fuse burn with charcoal wood & firebricks.
Place the pan on top of fire bricks & grate in normal position.
Light one end adjust vents to run bout 250F
Bet you can cook 8-10 hours without refueling!

Scroll down to see my reply & a couple of setup pics. The ring of fire (fuse burn) as shown lasted 8+ hrs. and I didn't have to babysit it.

As I mentioned in this post, I had a hard time keeping this small fuse burn at or above 250°, so I would make it a little bigger next time, with three briqs on the bottom row and two on the top with wood spaced periodically around the fuse.

I found this video that I thought was very interesting and a simple solution for indirect cooking of meat on the Weber kettle.
