New Lineup for the 2011 Competition Season
![Post Post](./styles/prosilver_se/imageset/icon_post_target.gif)
After much thought over the close season, Neil and I decided to upgrade our kit for the 2011 season. We decided not to cook competitions on my Traeger as, even though I love cooking on it, with the 3-setting controller getting consistent temperatures is not possible and we like consistency when cooking comps
In the end we plumbed for 3 WSM's. Here's my two on their test burn today...

Have to say, I'm already fairly well acquainted with WSM's but actually, running one and recording it's behaviour today has blown me away. I didn't use the greatest bag of lump, but both babies have burned in the 250-260 range for over ten hours with minimal interaction
I've just opened them up to burn off the rest of the fuel as there's loads left. I'm a very happy chap this evening
While I was at it I also picked up a new Weber kettle, my reasoning being, new house, new BBQ

Yes it's very blue, but wifey likes it.
Please also excuse the state of my garden in the photos, we've only been in the house 3 weeks and with a list as long as my arm of jobs to do, landscaping the garden and laying a new patio may take some time![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
