Title: Where to get a Pellet Pro Stacker Ring for 22" WSM?
Post by: duff645 on August 14, 2017, 05:00:27 AM
I tried searching/oogling for a Pellet Pro Hopper & Stacker Ring for a 22" WSM.  I saw it on you tube and this site under "Pellet hopper WSM" thread, contacted both SmokeDaddy and CajunBandit but I have not seen the actual configuration available.

Any kind suggestions?

Duffster!!

I believe @swamprb has one, not sure if it is on a 22 but he may be able to help.

I can't help but asking, "why?" Why convert a wsm into a pellet smoker?

Replacing my old UDS with a pellet driven smoker.  Mainly for controlled temp airflow during the cold winter months in Michigan. I need something to do a batch of 4 briskets or 8 pork butts. I have other Weber grills that I can smoke/grill smaller quantities and a custom trailer for huge batches. Plus I can still use my 22" WSM without the stacker, I choose to do so (hence the inquiry in getting a stacker ring).  I really want to modify/drill onto the stacker and not on my wsm.

Update:  neither SmokeDaddy nor CajunBandit have any stackers left (both have discontinued this accessory). I guess SmokeEZ has the only 22" barrel extensions available ... unless someone here wants to sell me their stacker!!

@duff645 Since they aren't making the Pellet Pro/Cajun Bandit Stacker any longer, I'm hanging onto it, but I would suggest getting a donor kettle and cutting out an opening in the bowl for the hopper to mount to.

I mounted this to a Genesis frame, the hopper sits on the lower frame and is secured on both sides with fasteners, the bowl is secured to a strap attached to the frame. Very secure.

I've added a steel disc heat deflector the same distance as the grates under where the waterpan would have been and have 2 full grates. I put a foiled tray for a drip pan over the deflector.

I like this setup better than the Stacker conversion.

@swamprb:  WOWZA .... great suggestions!  Going to look for a Genesis or "non-full" length Performer frames locally now.  It's going to be a great fall project for my father-in-law and myself.
