Weber Smokey Mountain Cooker 57cm & Cover Reviews

5 Rating 2 Reviews
A couple of years ago my friend pestered me to get a Weber smoker but I bought a very cheap bullet smoker online - it was rubbish. I modified it a lot to try to copy the Weber Smokey Mountain design. Well I sort of got it to work but was very hard work. I did learn a lot about trying to control the temperatures!!! He kept badgering me and I finally ordered a WSM 47cm (18") to get me through my prostate cancer treatment - sort of a therapy for me. Well I had to wait over the christmas/new year closures for it to arrive so I got stuck into youtube and viewed hundreds of BBQ and smoking videos. The day it arrived I had it assembled and I did my first BBQ smoke. WOW is all I can say. What a difference to my el cheapo model - it went on the tip next day!! The new WSM is so fuel efficient, easy to control temperature and just a brilliant unit. A few weeks later I bought a weber kettle and a year later I bought my second WSM - the big daddy 57cm. I got the bigger one to help me cope with smoking Christmas gammon hams that I accidentally started selling last Christmas as I decided to expand my product list. Now I use them both for doing all sorts of smoked products and absolutely love them both. The 57cm uses a bit more fuel but it has 60% more grate space so can fit in loads more. (BTW - within 14 months I had 6 weber smokers and kettles in my arsenal) Plus I started a smoking group as well and always there to help people.

Received my order promptly from WOW BBQ well packed and undamaged box only to find the centre chamber was distorted and the lid would not fit at all. Reported to WOW BBQ and two days later received from Weber a perfect replacement chamber all with no hassle at all. Would recommend both companies for excellent service. Alan Walker.
