Pros: It's smoking for idiots! That easy!

Cons: It wasn't free. It doesn't come with free beer. It doesn't do my laundry.

Had a Char-Griller offset for a year, then got the WSM 22.5". It was almost criminal how much easier this thing is to use. I ran a 14 hr. brisket, plus additional 2 hrs. of burnt ends, and I still had 1/4-1/3 of my charcoal left!

 

This somoker is such a joy to use that you will find yourself making excuses to find reasons to fire it up...heh-heh.

I love my WSM, it easily the best for the money smoker available on the market today.  Getting the temperature set at the beginning of a smoke can be a little tricky and time consuming but it holds rocks steady for hours once you get it where you want it.

 

The water pan and charcoal hopper are large enough for long smokes.  Cleanup is easy if you line the waterbowl in foil before you begin, top and bottom.

i have been using a horizontal offset for over a year andi turned out good que with ALOT of effort.  decided to get the 22.5" WSM for a comp cooker after hearing how easy it is to use.  did 2 smokes on the WSM with less than desirable results.  on the 3rd smoke, i produced the best que i have ever done or tasted.  it will go a long time on a load.  i reuse the left over coals every smoke and i think after about 4 smokes, i won't have to load new coals.  i'm REALLY happy with this smoker.
