Learn the minion method and don't worry if the new smoker runs a bit high for the first few cooks. It's part of the seasoning process, once everything is nice and gooey, that cooker should be broken in and sealed.
FYI, 225 is NOT the magic number. If the WSM wants to settle in @ 260-300, just let it roll.
