PSA: I picked a 14-inch WSM over a pellet grill for my first real smoker and it was the right call.

Okay but is the choice between a WSM and a pellet grill really that big of a deal? One is basically a fancy outdoor oven and the other is a charcoal can. Both just cook meat. The whole "right call" thing feels like making a huge deal out of picking a toaster. People act like you need a degree in fire science to use a WSM. It's just a grill.

I mean, they both cook meat, sure, but that's like saying a bicycle and a car both get you places. The pellet grill runs itself, you set a dial. The WSM needs you to manage the fire, which changes how the smoke flavor turns out. It's the difference between making dinner and actually barbecuing, you know?
