I am going to expound on my previous post. For starters I was born, bread and will probably die a stick burner. I do use other types of cookers though. What do you want to do with your cooker ? You say at the most you will be cooking for 10 - 15 people, that’s great, a WSM can handle it, so can a Klose plus more. Are you wanting to just "cook" on your new smoker or will it be a focal point in your backyard ? If you are entertaining 10 - 15 friends in the back yard, they will not be circling around the WSM admiring it and talking about it. They might pet the top of it and make a comment about it, pretty much about the same as when your child brings out a plate of snacks, but that’s all. But when that Klose is parked in your backyard the friends will be circling their wagons around it. It tells your guests that they are in the presence of a "barbecue man". The women will edge a bit closer to you. The men will have visions of grandeur of someday owning their own cooker. Stories will be generated by those that know others who know a "barbecue man". After a while, when you walk down the street, kings and queens step aside. Of course when you buy the WSM, you will be known as that guy who's aqquainted with R2D2. Decisions, decisions.
