While I already have 14 and 18 inch smokers that I have built, I wanted a 22" to use for ribs and brisket - so I laid down some dollars for a brand new 22 WSM. Feels so weird to actually register a new Weber grill! Of course, days after I bought it, 2 of them showed up on craiglist for half price.

The Payoff. Huckleberry ribs, cedar potatoes, caesar salad, and watermelon.
Creme Brûlée for dessert:
