    Looking at the 22" WSM -- couple questions

    Absolutely, you can never have to many! My wife might disagree, but I won't.

    Looking at the 22" WSM -- couple questions

    WSM 22" on sale now at Amazon, the 18" is not I have had the 18" since 2009. It has served me well. I even competed in a local BBQ competition using it and made Ribs, PorkButt, and Chicken, simultaniously on the 18" (Got second in Chicken, in case you were wondering). I am now considering a...

    Kevin Costner's Horizon Trailer

    I will be honest, when I read the title of this thread I was expecting to see that Costner put his name on an RV (trailer) company, named his first model Horizon. Paul Neuman salad dressing style. Glad to learn that he is sticking with what he does well.

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    This is a common approach for developing software, but a more problematic approach when applied to develop “hard” products. One of the more humorous illustrations of this was a quote from a former CEO of GM (I think) made in the early 2000’s. At one point it was brought to his attention that...

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    Thanks. That’s helpful. I saw that the most common failure of the first generation were the auger assembly, followed by electronics, were these yours? , Did you have the first generation or a later version? Going back to my original point, if this was a materials/quality of parts defect at...

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    i read many reviews that said it was a waste of money, but generally this conclusion was based on the early problems. Once they got those worked out (except for the pellet hopper), they seem to generally positive. For example, Max Good, the product reviewer over at Amazingribs.com made the...

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    I guess we will find out once the SearWood is released. It will be interesting to read/watch those early reviews.

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    I didn’t look at cutting cost making the SearWood inferior to other cookers in the $1000 price point, but as being inferior to products in the $1500 price point. That’s what I meant by the SmokeFire being the better built product (designed and built for $1500 price point) now discounted to the...

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    Thanks again for the clarification. It still is interesting that the cook box of the SearWood is made of cast aluminum. Also, I can’ ignore the lower priced MSRP in this period of relatively high inflation. Where are they saving cost?

    Thanks for the clarification. I was reading more into the double wall than it was.

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    Thanks for all your feedback! I was leaning towards waiting before I asked, and will likely wait. The thing that raises questions in my mind is the fact that the cost of the SearWood's MSRP is $400 less than the Stealth. In this age of relatively high inflation, things aren't getting cheaper...

    SmokeFire EPX6 Stealth Addition - On Sale

    All, I just saw that the Weber store on Amazon has discounted the SmokeFire EPX6 "Stealth" to $1109, which would be about $100 below the Searwood of the same size. So is this a good deal for someone (me) who loves Weber and looking at getting a pellet smoker? Or should I wait for the new...

    Review: Impossible Burger at Burger King

    Chris, Thanks for the review! Quick question, when you tasted the third Impossible Wopper, was it any more juicy than the first one? Was the flavor any different/better? Thanks.

    2nd Brisket ever

    I have seen and made many briskets that fall short of what you have shared. I don’t know that I have seen to many of any that exceed it.
