I don't use the water pan with beef, or with anything I cook for that matter. The water pan, with water in it, is used as a heat sink, thus the ability to keep your temp consistent in the 225° range. The downside is, it is also a fuel hog and you can burn much longer on the same load of fuel if you can keep your temps consistent without it.

ETA: I think it gets "crustier" without a water pan, but it could just be in my head!

I've never heard that before. There are lots of sites that have details on benefits of using a water pan.
