Ok.. so I am considering buying a WSM to do smaller cooks and get some friggin sleep. So, I have a few questions.
What kind of fuel do you burn typically? Charcoal or Lump?
If you burn Lump, do you need to use wood chips/chunks for smoke?
What kind of burn times can you get with using sand in the waterpan and either Lump or charcoal at 225-235 degrees?
When you are doing extended times.. How often do you check the cooker?
2hrs, 4 hrs, 6 hrs ???
Also.. Besides adding a thermometer.. what modifications have you found are "necessary"
Thanks
