Weber Smokey Mountain Cooker 47 cm -savustusgrilli

Very nuce smoker. Heavy duty, cooks great. Would be better if it had handles on the middle section

Works as advertised. Easy to use, easy to clean. Recommended.

I love the Weber Smokey Mountain smoker. I got the 18 inch, so far the right size for me. Did ribs, chicken, pork shoulder and salmon. All came out great. Controlling temp, I found relatively easy. Second cooking grate is nice feature. I am a big fan of Weber. Have a gas one, kettle and now the WSM. I really like the door to add fuel for long cooks.

For Weber. Can the charcoal grate have tighter spacing to maximize fuel. Also, enhance accessories like: handles, wheels, gaskets, liners for water pan (Still a great little smoker).

I was given this as a Father's Day present and it is crazy easy to use! I was kind of worried that I would be throwing away bad results since I have never smaoked anything, but this smaoker is incredible and easy to use and be successful.

The control that you have with this smoker is truly impressive and the size works perfectly for cooking for up to 10 people easily.

Very solid, should last forever! After lighting give the coals some time to settle down ( up to an hour) and the temps are very easy to maintain. Some people don’t like the water pan but it works great for lower temperatures.

This is not my first WSM. Just like children: I love them all the same!

I debated buying a WSM for several years and finally pulled the trigger on the 18” model. I’ve had it for about a month now and used it half a dozen times. I’ve been very happy with the results. I’ll break down my thoughts into the highlights of positives and negatives.

First the positives: The food that comes off this thing is

excellent. It is a steady, steady cooker. The temps are rock

solid for about 6 hours with a full load of briquettes and various wood chunks (I usually use 3 or 4). I keep the lid vent completely open, two bottom vents completely shut, and one bottom vent about halfway open. When the temp starts to dip, it likes to ride at 275 with this method. I open the closed bottom vents as needed and get another two hours of steady temp. I do not use the water pan (see below). Construction is good and I don’t notice much in the way of smoke-leakage. I’ve done brisket, chicken, pork butt, pork belly, cinnamon rolls, bacon, etc. results are excellent.

Now the negatives: This thing needs wheels and barrel handles. You can do them after-market, and I may do that eventually. But for now, I have to put it where I want it and leave it there for the entire cook. The water pan is a total mess if you use it. You can wrap it in foil, but it still gets full of grease and it is a real job cleaning it out. I’d love to see Weber make heavy-duty foil liners for it. I cook without it and use a foil pan with water on the lower cooking grate. Needless to say, I have only used the top grate for cooking.

This is an excellent product overall. I’m a Weber junkie, and this WSM adds to my kettles and gasser.

Fantastic smoker! I have smoked with this for a long time now and have loved it more and more each time I use it. I love the control, ease, versatility, really everything about it. I added some mods, like a hinge for the lid, and handles, and I love it even more! It's fantastic and could not recommend enough!

We’ve had one for years now. The best bbq ever. Can’t afford the newer version though.
