what is most interesting to me about this post is that i pulled up each type of smoker you have picked as the alternative if the wsm was not made. This post really illustrates the point that there is no smoker anywhere near the price point of the wsm that does what it does. In each case, the alternative is either significantly more expensive or doesn't have near teh capacity. I looked at teh spice wine last and for 1000 dollars, you can do one brisket, or two butts, etc. I find that very expensive and limiting in terms of quanitity. Other than the BDS, which is more reasonable but still twice the price, doesn't seem to offer any real advantages. Besides, the others don't have boards like this with so many experienced wsm owners.
I have finally located a local shop that carries the wsm, so i'll finally get to see one.
