My name is Jason and I want to be a SMOKE-AHOLIC, lol.
So a little intro about me. 41 yrs old, active duty Master Chief in the US Navy and stationed in San Diego. I've been reading BBQ forums the last 3 months and finally decided on the WSM 18.5" which I bought yesterday for $183.00 out the door (floor model) which I believe was a steal of a deal considering they are $300 new.
I also picked up a few extras for the smoker based on post that I've read on here:
- Gasket for front opening/lid
- BBQ Guru CyberQ Cloud
- Lid Hinge
I have most normal BBQ items since I own a Weber Genesis grill such as tongs, spatula, etc but curious what other items you'd recommend that I need. I'm open to any/all suggestions so fire away. Not worried about the price of any features, I have a sugar momma who will buy me whatever I want as this is my birthday present so help me spend my birthday money please.
What else do I need?
1. Custom Cover (will the one that comes with it fit with the new hinge installed)
2. Upgraded aftermarket stainless steel door (Cajun Bandit)
3. Handles for sides
4. Caster Wheels
5. Upgraded Thermostat For Top Lid (which would you recommend)
6. Chimney (which size)
7. Extra grate on bottom to keep small charcoal from falling through OEM grate
8. Terra-cotta saucer instead of water inside water bowl
9. Extra food probes for CyberQ
10. Heat Resistant Cooking Gloves (any recommendations)
11. Grate Brush (any recommendations)
12. Charcoal (I’ll buy local, but what brand does everyone recommend "Kingsford Blue")
13. Handheld Meat Thermometer
14. Propane Torch Adapter vice Firestarter cubes?
