This new cooker by Weber will quickly become a classic just like the smaller one has. Nice construction and easy to assemble. from Amazon.com This is a great cooker , I've cooked on a lot of smokers and this one is the best. First cook was 2 pork shoulders and it could not have gone better. from Amazon.com I did a lot of research on the different types of smokers that are available and am so glad I bought the Smokey Mountain Cooker. The first time I had ever smoked was a couple weeks ago with this unit and it turned out perfectly! from Amazon.com I had a horizontal smoker with the fire box on the side previously. It was OK but it took alot attention to keep the temp constant. My neighbor and his brother both have the Weber and highly recommended it. The are both avid smokers. from Amazon.com Cooker holds temps for long cooks, but you will need to purchase an additional thermometer. The one in the lid runs actually lower than temps taken at the grate (it should be higher). from Amazon.com I checked this smoker against the cheaper ones that Lowes and Home Depot sell. The Weber 2820 is made better and is much sturdier than the other smokers. This smoker should last a long time. from Amazon.com I am cooking ribs on my 22" WSM as I type this. This will be my third time cooking since I received it a few weeks ago and the results I've been getting have been some of the tastiest barbeque I've ever had. The design is excellent, the build quality is excellent, the instructions and support from Weber - all excellent. But after all this "hype" the reason I only gave it 4 stars out of 5 is because, as good as it is, I believe Weber has over-priced it somewhat. from Amazon.com I found a bigger universal cover to work. Also, the bottom "lip" of the lid fits INSIDE the top of the barrel and the bottom lip on the barrel fits INSIDE the fire housing. Both of these allow rain to run inside the cooker, thereby causing water problems. Other than that, I obviously use and enjoy the cooker and have done a whole bunch of BBQ Ribs, Chicken, Briskets, Butts, Shoulders, etc. from Amazon.com First, the charcoal grill does interfere with the lower vent disc tang which protrude through the vent holes. I fixed this by bolting on a small angle brace elevating the grill about 1/2". Secondly, my water bowl had a poor finish on bottom and I will be asking weber for a new one It cooked exceedingly well and I am pleased. from Amazon.com I used this in Vietnam, where the local butcher, Hang Kau Pung, asked me to use my gas grille for his yak. After butchering it, we used the grille to smoke it and had a problem when the ribs did not fit on the Weber 3601 Rib Rack. I had 5 Weber Rib Racks so they were useless and we had to put the cooked meat on the fly dirty ground near treated sewer water. from Amazon.com
