New Owner 18.5

[smokermedic]

Got my WSM 18.5 this past Thursday and unfortunately this was my weekend to work. Yep, still in the box. It will be coming out Monday and I will be lighting it up. Very excited to get my smoke on! And...very happy to find this group!

Welcome aboard!!!  I have the 22.5" and love it!  Just holler if you need any help with anything.

Good Luck and Get Smokin'

Thanks Bill and I feel sure I will have many questions down the road.

Got the WSM out of the box today and seasoned it up. Found it much easier than expected to control the temp. Gonna go with ribs and beans in the morning.

Awesome!  I'm looking forward to your Q-View.  Don't forget to shoot the prep.

How about a shot of that new WSM?

Yup you sure will like your WSM. I've had all kinds of charcoal/wood smokers and my 18.5 blows them away. I opted for the 18.5 for use in the RV.

Life is good.

Craig has a nice Guru setup on his WSM. Makes for easy smoking.

You got a real winner there with your WSM. I call mine "set-it-and-forget-it" easy, it just plain works with no problems. If you ever decide to add eyeletts for probes, check out the link just bellow my signature line.

I smoked a brisket a couple weeks ago and it was -20 with 20-30 wind. It was a little over half full of lump and I got 6 hours at 230-240 with vary little care.

You are going to love your WSM! I cant believe how little you have to mess with it. I got 15 hours doing a pork shoulder in Dec.
