Only had the grommet for a year never had the balls to drill into my WSM.
But I'm just getting ready to smoke a big brisket, so I figured I go for it..
no big deal..,
Good job man! Looking forward to seeing your brisket cook.

Looks good and it's on the side Weber should have put it on! I mentioned it to customer service before and they said they've heard it from a few people already. This side allows you to set things on a performer table.

Lol
Everything I do with the smoker is on the left side

Nice. Did your wsm already have one on the other side or none at all? I looked into buying a grommet but they are proud of those. A little pricey for me. At least last time I checked.

I need to grow some nuts and do this myself.
No my WSM is a 2006 no grommet.. I am so glad I did it.. 11:4 inch hole.
3.5 inchs from the middle of the top screw and 3.5 fro the edge of the door.. I did bot my 22's.. cost me like 9.00$ from Weber. They said if I drilled the hole I would void my
Warranty.. I'm bad!!!
I hate auto correct!!
Here is the results

Great looking brisket. What size hole did you drill?
1 1/4 that's the size Weber puts in .. how do I know?went to Home Depot
With a caliper and measured the one on display!!
Thanks for the tip. Drilled mine yesterday. I was surprised how strong the steel was. The grommet is a great upgrade!
Magonzo,
Right.. it strong stuff.. I am glad I did it.. really no big deal.
👏👏👏 Its about time you finally drilled that hole. Adding OEM grommets,thermometers and lid vent handles can only help in the grilling/smoking process. Congrats.
