Looking for pics of latest Hunsaker Vortex Basket for WSM

El Ropo · 07-16-2018, 06:24 PM

Hey all, I've just moved to my own home, and am going to start getting serious again after a 6 year hiatus. I've already got the 22.5 WSM sitting here ready to go, but am wanting to so something to fix what I believe is a basket shape that is too wide and not tall enough. Plus I never plan on using water in my WSM.

I'm looking at the Hunsaker Vortex basket, but before I pull the trigger, I'd like to see pics of the latest incarnation of their WSM baskets. I can't seem to get a good pic of what the current variant looks like, and how they sit inside the cooker. I've seen versions with a separate metal ring on top of the basket, and some without the metal ring.

My concerns are the loss of distance between the coals and the cooking grates, and exactly which version of basket is available currently.

If anyone has pics of a recently purchased vortex basket, I'd appreciate it if you could post some pics.

Thanks.
