I've been following some threads on here we're people are talking about air leaks making it hard to control temps or hard to shut down the coals at the end of a cook. Well a while ago I smoked some spare ribs and panicked about the fact that my bottom 3 vents were closed the whole time and my temp never dropped below 250. So I broke down the WSM and measured it and found it to be fairly out of round. Called Weber and they sent me out a new bottom and middle section.
I just got around to moving the hardware from the old WSM to the new one. And I was thinking as I did, will it really make that much difference?? What should I expect out of the WSM, I know its easy, and all of my cooks so far have turned out great. But when closing the bottom vents completely what kind of temps should I expect to be seeing?
