Has anyone heard of taking a smokey joe weber and converting it to a "mini" smokey mountain?  I'll attach a link...

i kinda figured.  I'm new here just wanted an opinion.  Seemed like it maybe a fun day project.   Thanks 1buckie.  Have you tried any DIY Weber projects?

There's people who are WAY into the mods & customizing & are really pros.....one of my favorites is Winz's Bisbee....the all-Copper Performer.....

Can't find it right now, but some fellow had a catering rig that was a BIG table with four Copper kettles on arm that swung out from each corner.....completely off the hook !!!

this was my first charcoal weber. After messing with an ECB that had no temp controls. As you can see, things escalated a bit.
Starting LineUp: Summit Charcoal Grilling Center, Ranch Kettle, Genesis E310, SJ Gold MiniWSM, the JETTLE,
Alumni: Performer Dlx, 22.5" WSM, 26" OTG, 18.5" WSM, 22" OTP

Probably one of my favorite smokers next to my drum smoker, both super easy to use!
Wanted: 18" Platinum any color will work
This is my Kettle there are many like it but this one is mine......

@WKCTodd

The smokey mods r interesting..

Id highly recommend a 14.5" wsm...its an often overlooked and underappreciated member of the wsm line
