I use an 11-lb bottle (the tall/skinny version). On my manual slide tray it will clear the frame rails and I bungee it to a 5-gal bucket full of cleaning stuff for extra stability. The 20-lb bottles are too heavy for me to wrestle in and out so went with the 11.
We also have a GMG Davey Crockett pellet smoker that I really love, but for me it's a little heavy and awkward for in and out when traveling, so only take it when gonna be set up in a spot for awhile. We're taking a summer long trip to PNW starting in a couple of weeks and will take the Weber Q1200 and the 11-lb bottle instead of the smoker and bags of pellets. Not as much fun to cook on or as versatile, but does a great job, is much more portable, and easy to find fuel.
