First Ever WSM smoke!

[Tom Miraglia]

Well for Christmas my girlfriend got me some scotch and a 14.5 inch WSM. Slacker that she is, she didn't get around to putting together the WSM for me until last weekend! So my first smoke was some wings and a whole chicken. Put the chicken on the bottom shelf and the wings on top. Grill held steady around 225 degrees or so. At 90 minutes, I ate the wings... delicious. At 3 hours I took the chicken off and ate most of that too... Really good. Great smoker this WSM. Easy to use, steady temps. I can see myself using this a lot. I would post a picture but it says below that i don't have permission to do that.

Congrats Tom on the new smoker. You will enjoy it. It is a lot of fun to use.

After all the other stuff she did are we sure SHE didn't do the cooking (snicker, snicker)

Using the WSM will become an addiction.

Welcome to the forum Tom. You will become addicted to the smoker like most of us on here.....

Did you at least let the girlfriend have some of the 'Q after all she did

Welcome to the forum Tom. We wait for some pics!

To Don Reed: That's not true!! GF only did the cleaning of the chicken, the seasoning, and then brought it down to me. I did the all important fire starting and sitting near the smoker with libations!
