    Got my new WSM 22.5"

    I think I'm going to have to grab an iGrill. I got a master forge thermometer with the wireless receiver. I should do the boiling water and ice water test on it, but I have a brinkmann instant read that's pretty accurate. That's my back up for the meat, I need a better grill thermometer. Bama...

    I'm not sure if it helps, but I've closed all the vents off and put the charcoals out before without any kind of wind shield. I hope my vents don't have a leak, I saw the mod for the door I should definitely look into that.

    Got my new WSM 22.5"

    I used two different thermometers on the butts and they're both around 155. Opening the lid must've lit up the bed of charcoals more cuz now the dome reads 300 and I have. I adjusted the vents like you said and its slowly starting to drop so that's good. I guess whenever the butts read 160 I'll...

    It can't be the vents I have a box shielding them. It's starting to balance out, the dome reads lower than my thermometer by the grate, which is weird. Could be a hot spot, I probed the butt when I opened the lid and its reading 161 right now and it's only been 3 hours. That hot temp got it...

    Got my new WSM 22.5"

    I've been running it for two hours now. All vents are just about closed except for the top. The one facing away from wind is maybe 1/4 open, another is closed, and the other just smaller than 1/4 and it wants to stay between 285-290. I hope this doesn't mess the butts up. The bark was looking...

    I put the butts in about an hour ago. Got off to a late start, might be a long night and morning ahead. I feel like I may have put too much wood, the smoke is thicker than I like to see. It's running a little hot, but it's pretty hot here in good ole humid New Orleans. I'll start a thread with...

    So would you guys be suggesting that I fill my pan with sand and foil it? I was going to use water, but I like the sound of all the pros a clay pot or sand has to offer. What kind if clay pot do you use? Do you have a pic of the setup? What kind of sand to use?

    I'm running two 8.5lb bbs tomorrow. Should I not put water in the pan? What should I do with the pan?

    I hope so! I bought it specifically for easy temp control. Was shocked by the BGE, but didn't want to spend that much. I also wanted more surface area, I can't wait to see how long a full load of charcoal runs and how many adjustments I'll need to make.

    Absolutely post a link! I've only used it once, and I was very happy with the results. I'll be posting some Q view very soon. I made one other mod to it I bought the screws from BBQ Gurus and they replace two of your grate holding screws. You're supposed to be able to fit your thermometer...

    Oh yea they put two handles on the lid. I had to order it online cause no where around here sells them. I was pretty shocked to see how large it actually is. Pleasantly shocked I might add :)

    Got my new WSM 22.5"

    Everything was packaged well. One of the vents on the bottom is a little stiff, but no big deal. Everything else fit great. I then used a charcoal grate for an 18.5" weber kettle grill to stop smaller pieces of lit charcoal from falling through the grates. Works pretty well, though it could be...
