Just had my new 22.5" WSM delivered from Amazon.....that sucker is heavy! Thought I could hide the box from my wife for a few days....not sure now. Can't wait to start cookin!!!
Welcome aboard! i remember the day my 22 came, you're right too big to hide. once mine came the wife told me i was done with "toys" for a while, but she loves the food. that's the angle you gotta keep playing, plus i like what James said, that's always a good start too.
Yes the 22.5" WSM is a heavy huge box..no need to hide. My wife, son coworkers are always asking when am I BBQing again. Very ez to use and excellent smoker.
HAHA! Thanks everyone. Her maiden voyage won't be until Thursday. Having a big cookout for the 4th. Looking forward to the "set it and forget it" ease compared to my Chargriller Super-pro with the SFB. That thing always needs babysitting to keep temps in line, but always turned out good 'que.
I told my wife i won my 22.5 in a bbq pic comp!....as i already have a performer and spirit in our very small (15ft x
40ft garden)....first time i made ribs for her uncle and aunt all was forgiven...box chopped up quick and put in the recycling bin!
I just ordered mine today! The wife has loved the experimental smoking on my charcoal grill that she had no problem letting me get one. Cant wait to smoke on a real smoker!!
