Hi
I am new to the forum, but have the WSM 18.5 bug, I think I need one.
My only smoker is a Chargriller Smokin Pro with Side Fire Box, a very nice set-up, no doubt, but it needs a lot of attention....
So I staterd looking into vertical smokers...was going to buy a Brinkman because of the price, but then I did research here and I know it is worth waiting either to save up or wait for a good Craigslist deal
BUT HERE IS MY QUESTION:
I look at the online WEBER instruction book for the 18.5 WSM, and I can not for the life of me understand where the water bowl goes?
Does it just sit right on top of the hot coals in that ring?
Or is there a bracket that holds it up?
Speaking of brackets, why do the 4 four brackets that bolt to the walls of the WSM have the differnet " lips, " if you will, on them? are they designed to hold additional grates of different diameters?
