I cut my teeth on a Brinkmann bullet smoker, and it was far from being a 'steamer'. The water pan is there to help maintain temperature. If you are near the preferred 225 degrees, enough water will evaporate to dissipate any excess heat. If the pot of water is actively boiling then you are running close to 250; at that point you use less fuel or close your dampers.

Everyone openly admits that the CS produces a very moist cooking environment, but I have yet to hear of anyone referring to it as a 'crockpot'.
