I would like to know also. I got only 4 cooks out of a clay saucer before it broke.

Im a little late to this thread but this is my experience with my new 18.5 with built in thermomter. When I got the WSM and before I cooked on it I tested the thermometer by diping the probe into boiling water. It read right on the money. I also use a Maverick et-7 probe through a potato on...

I tried the Duraflame natureal Bruqa once in my Chargiller with side box before I got the WSM. It was the only time I had ash choke out my fire. It produced more ash than regular K. I won't use it again.

I was suprised to see a couple of the 22.5" on the floor of my local Ace hardware stores. If you have any in your area you might check them.

Thanks everyone for your responses It is nice to have options like this. Might get one while saving up for another WSM, maybe the 22.5.

Thanks Don I will pick one up before my next cook

What size saucer did you get? I am getting rid of the water pan in my new 18.5". It is just too deep and touches the charcoal when I use a full ring.

Yes I have seen his video review also. I just haven't heard of any one using it and was wondering how they like it and how it affects the cook.

I have seen the video Chris made of the ProQ Stacker. Does anyone have one and how do you like it?

Dan I got a ET-7 for Christmas and have had no problems with it so far after several cooks. It comes with two probes to attach to the transmitter unit. I also use it to monitor the meat with one probe and stick the other probe all the way through a 1" chunk of potatoe to monitor the cooker...

It could have happened durring re-assembly or it could have been the drippings from the chicken hitting the ashes causing the fly away. Did you open the door at any time during the cook?

The good thing about winters in Florida is they only last 2 maybe 3 weeks max.

I always used a plate to fan the coals. Less expensive and you can use the plate to eat off of.

Did you check the weber thermometer to see if it is accurate? It is easy to do. Just unscrew the wingnut and hold the probe of the thermometer in boiling water. I did that with mine and it read right between 210* and 215*. I think that it might be better to compare the temp at the grate and...

When I first opened the box last week and saw the water pan I thought "Wow that is a big difference from the pervious water pan. I just compared it to the old pan and the brinkman pan on the water pan page, and I think weber went overboard on it. The new one is 14 1/2" diameter 7" deep holds 2...
