it should be arriving tomorrow....got it for $339 from amazon....pretty good price i think. gonna do some chicken on wednesday for my first smoke on it.....can't wait
 
yeah i'm really excited about it....i only wish i didn't have to work 12 hour days tomorrow and tuesday.....won't be able to do much with it until wednesday/thursday....
 
logistical question....

because i've never operated with charcoal....are these things safe to use on my deck or should i use my driveway....i'd rather use the deck....

any feedback would be appreciated
 
Congrats on getting your WSM. Mine arrived today and I have it loaded in the back of my SUV. At 5 pm local time we have a heat index of 102 F. Once the outside temp drops this evening I am going to begin the assembly process. I was planning on putting it on the deck, but saw an article on the board about someone setting the deck on fire during an overnight cook. From the previous posts it sounds like the deck will be fine as long as I use some safety common sense. I have some Mexican tiles I am going to look at in putting down as a deck cover. I might shop around for some sheet metal too.

Congrats new WSM owner. The learning curve is a great journey that you will gain insight each time you light the WSM off. The unit will cook better every time you use it as it seasons in. I cooked a chicken on my first try since it was an inexpensive first test. It cam out fine. Butts are easy too and fun to cook.
