Just bought a wsm

[bomberchamp]

I went to an employee sale at work tonight and bought a 18 1/2 inch wsm. They were selling the floor models to employees at a discount. I was in there earlier and saw the smoker and there was only one to be had. I got there about 15 minutes before the event opened up and when they let us in I bee lined it straight to the back and grabbed the card for it locking it up as mine.

I was able to buy it already assembled for 175.00. :yahoo:

I also picked up a set of golf clubs, a BBQ utensil set, a safe, and a hamburger press while I was there.

Total out the door with tax was 552.00 with an estimated retail of over 850.00 for everything.

Happy birthday to me. The only downer is I have to wait until they are done using the demo floor models to pick them up which will be on dec 9th.

Oh well I guess the bird this year gets done in the old master forge one more time. :grilling_smilie:

Congrats on the wsm. I've had mine a month and I love it. $175 is a heck of a deal!!

Congrats! You're gonna love it. There's a huge -- almost cult-like -- following on the 'net for the bullet. Look forward to your cooks on it!

Great deal on a real good smoker. Look forward to seeing some good BBQ comin off it soon.

That's a great deal.  The wait would be killing me.

Nice score on the smoker.  You won't be disappointed.  Don't forget the Q-View!

Sweet deal! I found mine on craigslist. The previous owner bought it to make jerky and had a hard time maintaining the proper temp. He said he was open to trades for hunting or fishing equipment. I got in touch with him and ended up trading a 10' St.Croix surf casting rod for it. I couldn't be happier. You are going to love that smoker.

One more thing. If you haven't already read it get Gary Wiviotts book Low & Slow, Master The Art Of Barbecue In 5 Easy Lessons. It will show you how to familiarise yourself with your wsm.

Grats! That's a nice score, the WSM is a great smoker  - I have had mine for 4 or so years now and still love it!
