Made out of rebar. The hangers are made out of Stainless Steel welding rods. This fits my WSM 22.
So, I decided to cook chicken. First chicken was soaked in buttermilk over night. Then SPOG and paprika for rub 3 hours before cooking.

I used lump charcoal in my WSM. Keeping temps 335-345. Total cook time 1hr 20 mins.

Your Factor of Safety for hanging chickens in your WSM is more than adequate, even for hot smoked rebar haha.

I like the mod a lot! Like!
Thanks uncle eddie! Built to last!
