    weber shouldn't bother with the POS therm on the WSM lid!

    That is why I like the 14.5,  I will do 6-8 wings on the 14.5 and the rest on the Weber Propane grill right next to it, the grilled ones are for my wife.       other times I will do smoked turkey legs while I do wings on grill for her.

    weber shouldn't bother with the POS therm on the WSM lid!

    I put it on the lower grate because the top was filled with ribs, but when I have put it on the upper grate I find it is within 5 degrees of the dome on both smokers    But it isn't rocket science it is BBQ, it is not searing scallops or something, it is done when it is done, I don't sweat it...

    weber shouldn't bother with the POS therm on the WSM lid!

    I have to disagree, I have a 22.5 and a 14.5 and found both thermoms match my Redi-Chek virtually to the degree. Right now I am doing ribs on the 14.5 (2 racks)  and am sitting in the house watching the Pheonix Open and the digital remote says 228 the probe is in the center of the lower grate. I...

    She also doesn't drink, I remember about 10 years ago she had a glass of wine.  She told me yesterday that it was because I made so much smoked food at once, we had smoked food once a week for 5 weeks in a row.       I didn't see the problem.

    Insulation and wind break for Mini and 14.5 WSM

    I wanted something easy to store and that doesn't take up much room. to me the water heater blanket fits the bill. When rolled up it can be stuck anywhere When I was making it my wife thought it was for me to wear around me outside while cooking
