I hate not being able to decide something. I am going to get a Genesis EP-330 grill and a WSM. But I keep drifting back and forth between the 18.5 WSM and the 22.5 WSM. I live alone on the side of a mountain in beautiful western North Carolina. So I don't have a large family to cook for, though I'm making lots of terrific new friends here and want to have them over for BBQs. I'd also like to be able to smoke a turkey once in a while.
It seems like the 22.5 would normally be a waste of charcoal, to fire it up just to cook a chicken, some ribs or a nice piece of fish. I realize I could get an 18.5 charcoal ring for the 22.5, but do you think I would really need the much larger capacity of the 22.5?
Please help me decide this ridiculous choice I've created for myself.
thanks,
JP
