[qb]If you can only afford something below $100, another option would be to buy a 22" Weber One-Touch Silver kettle grill for about $80. You can make some kick-*** BBQ on it (with more effort than on the WSM, of course) and it's an excellent grill, too.
Just a thought,

This is in fact the recomended minimum equipment at Paul Kirk Cooking classes. Weber Kettles can be bought for very cheap at Garrage sales. I would go with the 22.5" version not the 18.5". Although I've smoked chicken and ribs with great success on a regular Weber Smokey Joe when there were only two mouths to feed. Click the house by my name for smoking on a Kettle instructions. Four racks of ribs with a Weber rib rack and #3901 rails or an aluminum water pan on a 22.5" Kettle is not hard and very tasty /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
One of my cube mates at works mother uses the directions at Weber.com to smoke a turkey on her Kettle for Thanksgiving. They then spend the rest of the year talking about how great the turkey was. Weber is family happiness in my book and theirs /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
The WSM is worth the money when you have it because it is a regular visitor to thw winners circle. Nothing at under it's price is a regular winner.
