    WSM 22” Best Overall Charcoal Smoker Under $500

    I love all my WSMs, but I think I'm a little behind the times; what is a WSK?

    So what other hobbies do you you guys have?

    I'm big into triathlons. It doesn't quite mesh with smoking, given the caloric intake from BBQ, but I do love doing triathlons. I'm doing 70.3 Des Moines race on Father's Day and am really looking forward to it.

    Darn phone calls

    I didn't know that setting existed; thanks for mentioning it, Chris! I've now got it set on my iPhone as well.

    New (non-Weber) Smoker?

    Thanks for the replies everyone! I totally agree about the build quality, Jim; if the build quality were better I would no doubt be getting one of these, but that is worrisome to me. An ATC is an option for me to look into (like I said, late August is my time-frame for buying so I have...

    New (non-Weber) Smoker?

    I love the WSM and have all three sizes but recently I've been contemplating the Masterbuilt Gravity series simply for the ease of control (if you don't know, it has a controller like a pellet grill but runs off either lump or briquettes). It seems almost like the best of both worlds to me...

    COVID 19 vaccine

    I'm going to be getting it as soon as I can. As others have said, there are others who need it before me (health care workers, etc.) but as soon as I'm able I'll be getting it.

    Brisket - Low and Slow or High and quick

    I've usually done low and slow but the last brisket I did was hot and fast around 300*. I will admit that I have limited experience with the hot and fast method but so far I prefer it (more hot and fast cooks to come to test it). I've found that with low and slow I tend to overcook the flat...

    Death, taxes and...?

    When late/in a hurry, you'll get stuck behind someone doing 10 under the speed limit.

    Best wood "chunks" from either store or online?

    Another Fruita fan here. I've always had good quality products from them.

    New to Me 22.5" WSM

    That's a great deal! I paid $275 for my used 22 and it had no mods, but the seller threw in a bunch of wood and two chimneys.

    Football?

    I enjoyed the first half of Thursdays Chiefs game but had to get to bed at halftime to get up for work on Friday. I'm usually never excited for football (I'm a baseball guy) but after the Chiefs went all the way last year and with baseball being such a shortened season I am kind of a little more...
