Wow Jeff! Congrats! That's a steal, even in the condition you found her in! I love my WSM 22.5! It burns a little more fuel than the smaller ones but it's nice to have to room when you need it.

+1 I just foil my water pan and run the old girl as hot as I can get her. I usually add one full lit chimney evenly on top of the non lit stuff and run all the vents wide open. This typically gets me close to 325-350. Crispy smoked chicken skin is the best! ...now I'm hungry for chicken!

Nice score! I just got a Blue OTG off of Craigslist too! It's my favorite!

Jay - That looks very nice! What kind of paint did you use? I think this would be a very good Christmas present for my father, especially since it's Bears themed!! ;)

Very nice find! Can't wait to see her cleaned up! :wsm:

http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/hsh/4614768368.html Can't beat the price! I just picked up a new OTG off Craigslist otherwise I would be all over this.

Chris I blame you for this terrible addiction! Just kidding! If it wasn't for TVWBB I would still own a Kenmore gasser! I am very thankful for this great forum and site!

Haha Phil! That was where I got my inspiration!

Rofl I like your way of thinking! She is a big roasted chicken fan... might be a good idea for the next cook! :-)

I hear ya! This is the first charcoal grill I've ever owned. I figured I should see how this goes before jumping to the big guns!

In fact Dave that one is only 5 minutes from me! I'll see how long it lasts on CL... Maybe I'll have a SSP next week. Who knows! My wife thinks I'm crazy... I say smoke on! :wsm:

I saw that one this morning before I took off to get the Blue OTG... I had serious thoughts about that performer but decided on the new one instead. If or maybe I should say when I get a Performer I would like one of the newer models...

Hmmmm I'm not sure? It didn't come in the box and I don't see one on the manual??? :eek:

Thanks Tyler! I think you're right! :-) I'm just stoked (pun intended) that I now have a gasser, smoker, and a kettle! Life is good!

Thanks guys! I love it! I figured no time better than the present to grill something! I had some pork chops and corn that was scheduled for the gasser but they met their fate on big blue instead! I have to say I love the taste of charcoal! :D I think I need to use a few more coals next...
