Good choice for a smoker. Only negative is it don't have a bunch of
capacity.

Lump charcoal. Lots of folks use Royal Oak cuz you can get it thru
your local (if ya have one) Do It Best Hardware store. Visit
www.doitbest.com to find your nearest store.

Maintenance routine?!?! Ya don't need one. Dump the ashes when ya
need to keep good airflow. 'Bout every other cook. Make sure what
lump you didn't burn up the last time is saved to use again. Clean
your cookin grates with a good wire brush when ya fire the WSM up for
a cook. What don't come off will cook off and turn to grit that the
wire brush will take care of.
