Pretty new to charcoal world--My wife got me a OTS for Father's Day that I converted to OTG. Have had lots of fun with my kettle. I've smoked ribs, pork butts, chicken and grilled lots of steaks and sausage too. My experience has been with a 4 burner gasser that has tables on each side. I love the Kettle but really wish I had something to do with the lid and also a work table. I've improvised with a TV tray as table and usually just deal with the lid issue.
Birthday/Christmas coming up and I going to ask for Lowe's gift cards for presents. I really want a Performer but I am enjoying smoking the meats as well. I hear great things about WSM.
So, I guess I just want thoughts on which direction? I'm very new to smoking/indirect grilling so I don't know if it's too soon for WSM anyway. I can continue to smoke with Performer using indirect method--but I wonder if having a WSM will create a better taste/experience?
I really, really like the Performer and am leaning in that direction. The utility of everything seems great--maybe almost as convenient as a gasser?
Has anyone been in similar situation before--can't decide between wsm or Performer?
thanks!
