Fluffing nice score!!! Damn.

First congrats on your new smoker and second please never say 11mm and 7/16 are the same again...one is right, the other is not!!!! OK the rant is over, enjoy the WSM. No cook is a bad one just a learning experience have fun.

Not sure model but my 92 base shows matching measurements to my 12. If they are off it can not be more than 1/4" which as GaryS said could easily be remedied. I have to believe they are the same, without pulling a leg off I can not be positive. Right now they are both 6' in the air stacked and...

Well this is probably late but temp is only a suggestion, make sure it is evenly cooked and most of all probe it for tenderness. You should be looking for hot knife in butter feeling after you get through the bark. Doubt you did anything wrong except stress over it ;) I stress over it still and...

I would like to also say be the BLANK careful with day old coals. I regularly grab coals with my hands to separate from the ash and after roughly 28 hours did not think about it and lets just say the neighbors know I am a moron. Now I have wired my ring to my grate and added a 18.5 Q coal grate...

I know, I will one day figure it out. Maybe that day will be today. And for 80 bucks to have another WSM in the corral is not a bad deal in my book. Could have probably gotten it a little cheaper but it was my lunch hour rush so basically heres your money, thanks and good bye. Funny lid is a O...

Well it was misrepresented on craigslist as a 22 but I bought it anyway. It has some scars and the lower vents are bent to sheat but a good cleaning and some pork butt cooks should get her lined back up for duty. Looks like the lower vents will get replaced and the wood handle may have to go...

Thanks David, I appreciate it and I wish it was all on the inside but sadly its not. I have given it a cooking earl rub down to the scratch/dent area. Not too concerned about it. I try and keep my smoker inside and when prepped for a cook I try and cover it. I may buy a new lid for it just for...

Yea its all good, I appreciate the supprt everyone. Trying to talk the wife into another WSM, yeah go big or go home right? It is going to be tough, I have a blue kettle lid showing up next week for my UDS. Oh the brisket was great, not to thrilled with my Carolina rub on my Butt though but I...

Well while getting my 18 loaded last night with a packer and pork butt I dropped my lid. Now I could have dropped it in the dirt, flat on concrete or the edge of the concrete. Yup I found the edge, not very dented but 5 inch gash to bare metal. I was so annoied with myself because it was my...

Thanks all I appreciate it, my sponsors.....Forgot to add while at my judging class there was a team from la mesa suburb of san diego, I believe they were the influence to Mr Soo's one cooker phenominom. Team smokahlics who also cook on a single 18 WSM. Again thanks all for the support and I...

:cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:

Thats actually pretty cool, a cyber Q goes perfect with Mini WSM.

I am wondering if anyone has added a strap to the lower lip of the Cajun bandit door. Basically so it will not drop out of the smoker while being used upside down. I have found running my stock door upside down is really nice, not because it does anything more than it will stay on the chamber as...

We have a company here in San Diego that does the header coating, I am very tempted to try this out. I have not looked into what they are going to charge for it though. I want to start with a smokey joe, try it then move to the 18 OTS and hopefully to my 18 WSM. Again no idea on cost so that may...
