“A couple of years ago my friend pestered me to get a Weber smoker but I bought a very cheap bullet smoker online - it was rubbish. I modified it a lot to try to copy the Weber Smokey Mountain design. Well I sort of got it to work but was very hard work. I did learn a lot about trying to control the temperatures!!!
He kept badgering me and I finally ordered a WSM 47cm (18") to get me through my prostate cancer treatment - sort of a therapy for me. Well I had to wait over the christmas/new year closures for it to arrive so I got stuck into youtube and viewed hundreds of BBQ and smoking videos.
The day it arrived I had it assembled (although with one part missing) and I did my first BBQ smoke. WOW is all I can say. What a difference to my el cheapo model - it went on the tip next day!!
The new WSM is so fuel efficient, easy to control temperature and just a brilliant unit. A few weeks later I bought a weber kettle and a year later I bought my second WSM - the big daddy 57cm. I got the bigger one to help me cope with smoking Christmas gammon hams that I accidentally started selling last Christmas as I decided to expand my product list. Now I use them both for doing all sorts of smoked products and absolutely love them both. (BTW - within 14 months I had 6 weber smokers and kettles in my arsenal) Plus I started a smoking group as well and always there to help people.”
“Wow! What a great piece of kit, easy to put together, I may have to wait for warmer weather to fire it up.
The service from WOW was outstanding, easy to order, quick processing and super fast delivery.
A 5 star service!”
“I had a real cheapo barrel smoker for a year and had to modify like mad to get it to do anything sort of properly. I then was undergoing radiotherapy and to keep my spirits up I took the plunge and bought the 47cm WSM. I am absolutely please as can be with it. It is so easy to set up and maintain the temperature I need with very few adjustments needed during the smoke. My longest hs been about 6 hours and only used about half the briquettes that I started with. Once finished I simply close all vents and the coals extinguish themselves and can be re-used the next time. I was so happy with it I went and bought a 47cm Kettle plus BBQ as well. I'm hooked.”
