I am finally ready to make a WSM Mini for myself. I built one for a friend of mine that has been cooking everything on a Smokey Joe(The guy is good at it for sure). That thing in the back is ambiance only. His only problem was he could not smoke anything. SO I whipped this up for him very fast.
Well since that day I have not been able to shake the idea of a dedicated wing smoker. I love wings and somehow always run out of room to make a big enough batch during a BBQ. The smoker is always busy and who wants to keep lifting the top grate for wings underneath or vice versa. I can do them on the kettle but who has time to sit and watch and flip when there is beer to be consumed, and time with family and friends to be had. With scar-belly's so good and so easy to cook(just set it and...."Forget it!") I decided this Friday would be the day. Went out and got the items needed. Found two old, retired before their prime, Smokey Joes at my mom's house a few months back so that is covered.
