I picked up an 18" WSM yesterday - on Kijiji - for a whopping $50. Seller included a Weber Chimney Firestarter, half a bag of charcoal and a partial bag of wood chips - for a whopping $50 CAD. It was in excellent cosmetic and functional condition (nothing corroded/rusty/seized).
I had a look on the Weber website and it seems to be a "Smokey Mountain Cooker Smoker vs a Smokey Mountain Smoker.
Other than the lack of an ash pan at the bottom below the unit and no thermometer on mine - is there anything significant I should know?
Has anyone retrofit a thermometer? - I assume masking tape will prevent scratches as I drill a hole and I will drill a pilot hole first.
Any mods I should be aware of?
