WSM keeps on truckin after 30 years!
I used my 30 year old WSM today. It was the 1st time I didn't use the Pitmaster IQ110 to control the temp. It ran perfect without it. The WSM smokers are solid smokers. I doubt if I'll use the IQ110 on it again, that's how steady it ran. The IQ110 is great for the UDS & pork butts & long cooks.

Yep when I first got it my wife said "Think it'll last you the rest of your life?" I said, "I think it'll last the rest of our youngest son's life, I'll probably give it to one of the boys before I reach that point."

Wow, that's great! I used mine for the first time today. Held the temperature like a champ for over 7 hours! Here's to 30 more years!

I just bought a new WSM last week because of this forum! Congrats on 30 years of great food and great memories!

Super! I have had mine for eleven years now and it is still going strong. What a wonderful design they came up with!

I think I am the 2nd owner for about 1 year. I got it off of CL for $50. Another Brethren was 1st on the sale and decided that he didn't need another one, so I ended up getting it.
I added some Wheels Clay Saucer New door & Lid handle Can of Easy-Off to give it the new car shine! The legs had a lot of rust (steel legs). I power wire brushed them and sprayed with with clear 500 degree engine paint. New nuts & bolts. Added some homemade side Weber handles and a grommet for the ET732. New lid Weber thermometer. Handles for the charcoal grate. The charcoal door was steel. I wasn't able to get the right shape to make it air tight, so I bought a aluminum replacement from Weber.

nice mods. i've chosen to keep mine stock though the wheel conversion is appealing.
