good morning to ya'll. I just sold my cambro. my wife says I can use the money to either buy myself a 26" weber kettle or a 18" WSM. it's my payment for painting the cabin. I have the mak up at the cabin but no charcoal smoker up there. I thought that I could use the 26 kettle to smoke w/ because of its large size and I will also get more cast iron skillet room on the kettle. I know that I just sold a 26 six months ago but they have since came out w/ a rotis for a 26 now and I am going to mod it to better suit my needs. or I can just get a 18" WSM. I do love my lovey. and I have a grill at both places already. what do ya'll think? :-\

Now, THERE is some good thinking! ;) ;D

Get the kettle sparky you'll have more cooking options.
-
You already have the MAK there, so if charcoal smoking if your goal, you have to ask yourself is that easier on the Kettle or the WSM?
-
My best briskets have come off of a 22.5 Weber kettle........the 26.75 will give it a little more wiggle room........I have never liked the grub that comes off the WSM's.......just personal preference I guess.....
-
If you can truly only have one, I'd say the WSM. That's just me though. If you are at the cabin, I'm thinking you'll need a little bit of set it and forget it time and the WSM will provide that.
-
Hey Sparky, have you made your mind up already? What's taking you so long? Decisions, decisions.

Get a 22 kettle & a 18 WSM!
It's a great compromise !
-
or a couple new rods so when I come visit i don't have to haul one down.

This is kinda like deciding between a sports car and a pickup truck. Both will get you down the road, but in different styles. Smoking using a WSM is fairly easy once you get the hang of it. Smoking with a Weber Kettle is a little more high maintenance but still plenty doable. If all you're going to use it for is smoking, the WSM makes a lot more sense. The kettle will do a broader range of jobs, though. Flip a coin?
