    Finally got one! (WSM)

    Great tip about moving the entire top grate from WSM to kettle. And now that you mention it, I can see from the WSM gasket pictures that the lid fits inside the rim. Too bad they aren't swappable: could have been more ammo to justify my decision (and prove to the wife that the extra $100 is...

    Thanks, Johnny! I see that you also have a 22.5" kettle grill. Are the grates the same as the WSM grates (although I would assume that the WSM grates don't have the sides that flip up)? Is the lid swappable? Just wondering.........

    Thanks, IMJ. I'm now convinced that the 22.5 will be the right one for me. We have a few all-day events during the summer here where I might need the bigger one. I also figure that I'll get the WSM gasket kit: I'm sure it will adhere to a brand-new WSM better than when it gets all gummy and...

    Ahhhh! I see my link came through (further up, in the order I posted it). Second time in moderation, and both went through pretty quickly!  Yee-hah!

    Thanks for the reply, Johnny. I figure that if I get the 22.5, then the grates will be the same size as my kettle grill. That could be a good thing: swappable grates if ever needed for some reason, maybe?!? I found gaskets specifically for WSM on EBAY, for the door and sealing between the...

    Also...regarding the gasket, I poked around and found this: specifically for WSM, and cheaper! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gasket-Weber-Smokey-Mountain-high-temp-Nomex-seal-mod-smoker-bbq-18-5-22-5-WSM-/170768327955

    Finally got one! (WSM)

    I've been very interested in a WSM. I've been using my 22.5" Weber kettle grill for smoking for several years. I purposely bought it with the grate that has the sides that flip up to be able to add coals and wood chunks during cooking when I want to smoke things. But...it has its limitations. I...

    Wings!! Q-view

    About the person that suggested you had a pizza oven...looking at the picture near the top of this thread, you have two towers. Your avatar shows the one on the right. I, too, thought at first that the tower on the left was possibly a pizza oven. Pardon my ignorance, but what is it for? Is it a...

    Netting around pork picnic

    I've changed my Avatar to show the finished picnic...turned out great! Fantastic bark, famtastic flavor...no netting required. I'm looking forward to the spring, when the days are longer (took a little more than 7 hours to cook these 4 pounds and didn't finish until after dark), and the temps...

    Hi from Manchester Bob

    Hi, all! I'm from Manchester, MD, and I've always loved cooking outdoors. I'm 56, and I still don't have a smoker (yet ), but I use a 22 inch kettle grill with a grate that opens on the sides so I can easily add charcoal and wood chunks while smoking. (I like conventional grilling, indirect...

    Netting around pork picnic

    I bought one of these boneless picnics to smoke today (New Year's Eve...in the 30's here on the Mason Dixon line), and I didn't know what to do with the netting. I did a search, and found this thread. Being an outdoor cooking enthusiast, I joined the forum. The netting on my cut was elastic! I...
