Title: I love a good deal...
Post by: Rub on November 21, 2017, 07:55:25 PM

  This "AD" 22" WSM with the Cajun Bandit SS door and SS Unknown hinge on FB Marketplace, for $200. A message or 2 later and it was mine for $170. I wasn't in the market for a WSM but I can't pass up a deal. Maybe this is the first step to moving over to all Weber's for competing? Burned some yardbird tonight to see how she handled. Seemed to want to cruise around 275 with the vents open. It's got a Guru port on it so I'll plug one in and use that to bump it to 325 next time. Held temp real nice with no help. I haven't cooked on one for about 10 years and forgot how cool they are to use.

Some old wooden handles make everything look better.

My Swamp Boys rub got the nod.

One small piece of pecan in a bed of lump. Could have used a little more.

Had to open the door to get the temp past 275 but it went back down when I closed it.

#stoleit!  That's a great unit, especially with the Cajun Bandit door.  It's a huge quality upgrade.

That door is a massive amount of SS!  Congrats on the score.

Great memory Brian. It sure is tempting. Right now I have probably close to 2,000lbs of insulated smokers (2) on my cook trailer. Something to be said for travelling light.

Did you get that in Barlow? I tried contacting the seller a few weeks ago but no reply. Nice get, especially with the door.

Thanks. No this was in central FL, Apopka. Or if you meant Bartow, I tried for that one too. No response like you.

Yeah Bartow. Even though I didn't get the WSM I was lucky enough to hit a speed trap in Moore Haven that cost me.

Nice addition, Rub.  I especially like how you swapped in wood handles before the first cook was even done.
