Review: I purchased my WSM about 8 months ago, and I literally have only missed only about 5 weekends worth of smoking since I bought it. I have smoked so much meat, my WSM hardly has a chance to cool off before I'm lighting it up again.

The WSM is...

Review: I call my Weber smoker, R2 since it looks like the character from Star Wars. First of all, I'd like to point out that I have 7 barbecue units. 5 are charcoal grills and 2 are small propane units. I love grilling and barbecuing (aka smoking). Before ...

It gives you much...

Pros: Durable, easy assembly, high capacity, ease of use, free cover.
