Hey everyone.
I hope everyone is well. I have a few questions for a future WSM owner that I was hoping to get some feedback on.
Been a long time gas griller and dabbled with a simple weber kettle this past year. It has been a very nice experience, and I am looking to up my game with a new WSM.
I like the weber product line and would like to get a dedicated smoker and after lots and lots of reading, youtube videos, reviews, I have settled in on the 22" WSM.
Couple questions I wanted to ask.
I like the idea of hanging ribs (ribs are super popular in my family and with friends) and have seen some kits that work with the WSM. Any thoughts on this approach? I believe it would allow me to hang more ribs at one time, similar to something like the Pit Barrel cooker?
If that is an ok approach, I had this wild idea about how could I cook/smoke multiple items at once in the WSM. With the two grate levels, would it be possible to say cook ribs on hangars on one side and maybe a pork butt or two on one or both grates? I am trying to get creative based on some pictures I have seen on some WSM and other barrel type cookers.
Capacity is a big item for me. I am opting for the bigger WSM model because it gives me flexibility and options to cook more. I'd love to figure out how I can cook more things on the WSM (whether its ribs, chicken, brisket, chili, veggies etc. etc.....) it gives me a reason to BBQ/smoke more.
I am very excited to get my WSM and looking forward to learning more on how to use it.
Really appreciate the help.
