    Probably, but with some modification. The radius isn't the same so you would have to use spacers. You would also have to lighten the springs. The WSM lid weighs a lot less.

    PART V The quick reference and manuals. In three languages. The quick reference is thick (think manila folder)and laminated. Quick refeference front. Quick reference rear. Almost forgot the diffuser. This thing is heavy! My guess is 10 pounds(?). Well made. It feels like something that...

    PART IV Performer in the background. Considerably larger. Another pain point. The little basket looks like a great idea and it is but the rails are terrible implementation. Easy to pull out but a pain in the butt to shove in easily. Problem is that it wiggles in the slot and one of the...

    PART III Protective film over the vent. The seal is broken! The family all together. Soon to be downsized? Biggest complaint here. Picture taken underneath the front lid. The lid doesn't sit evenly on the lower bowl. You have a little bit of centering control with the elongated slots in...

    PART II Another close up of the secret hole. Standard igniter wiring. Heat shield for the propane bottle. One beef here - the hose needed to be a little longer to get around the shield or the shield needs to be bent toward the bowl a little more. It was tough to hookup as is out of the box...

    Just ordered my Stoker!!!

    The guru eyelets work fine with the Stoker. When my probes were new they were a tight fit to slide through the eyelet. I just backed the tubing off of the metal part of the probe a little and pushed them in. Now that they have had a few dozen cooks on them the tubing has shrunk up enough that...

    Preferred network set-up for a Stoker

    If you have the ability to run the cable- Ethernet will be the easiest to use and most reliable IMHO. If you are comfortable with networking another wireless access point/router can be bridged as well. Both options will allow you to open a specific port to the internet for remote...
