Default Brazing stainless steel - what's easiest?

absolute rubbish and have come apart.

I don't have TIG (only MIG and stick) so I think brazing is probably
the best option. I have a gas torch which can get it hot enough, so
what's the best sort of brazing material to use?

The stainless is probably one or two mm thick and the joint needs to
be reasonably strong as it's holding chimney cowl to a chimney.
