I've done a few smokes in the Performer Kettle and have been from somewhat successful to very successful. The inconsistencies make me want (read, not 'need') a WSM. If I did, I'd likely get the 18" as I cook for only 3.5 (not all kids eat much off grill). I've searched this forum and the internet a lot and read most threads. I would like to hold back from the WSM as I don't want to spend the $$ and just as important share the floor space with with the Performer. Can anyone convince me sticking with the Kettle for grilling and smoking is the smart thing to do? Also, anyone have step-by-step instructions on how they smoke in a kettle or a link? Thanks!!
