Just a quick hello from a soon-to-be WSM 22.5 owner in the Tampa area... I have always wanted a WSM and thanks to a very successful year at work (I work in sales for a major scientific supplier) I will be getting a very nice bonus in about 6 weeks. I will be treating myself to a 22.5 and IQ110 as well. The wifey will also be getting a nice stack of Benjamins to waste on shoes that she doesn't need and clothes that she'll complain about. This will be my first vertical smoker. I previously owned a Chargriller Duo and did a lot of smoking on that before it rusted out. Before that I did some smoking on a Weber kettle and also in a gas grill using smoker boxes... I've definitely been going through smoking withdrawals! Baby #2 is due in late March, so after I get the new WSM I plan smoking several butts and briskets that I'll package with the Foodsaver and freeze for quick and easy meals after the baby gets here.
Anyone in the Tampa (or even Ocala/Gainesville areas) have any recommendations for a good butcher?
