Can't go wrong with a 22.5 WSM. I have been doing contest with a one 18.5 and one 22.5 works well. Good luck 👍
Have fun and happy smoking BBQ UP

A 22 1/2" WSM is right in your price range and turns out great 'q.
 Good luck. Sent from my Android phone.

Don't buy a wsm 22................unless you want a great smoker, easy to use and in your price range.
Good luck with the competitions! |

WSM is the perfect complement for the price imo.
You have the high-heat capability of the Akorn, and the low n' slow of the WSM not to mention good capacity. |

I compete on four 18.5" WSMs. It would be the perfect complement.

Seems to me a 22" WSM would be easier to move around then a UDS would be,
