Looking For WSM Door Upgrades

I spent the money on a door. Old style WSM. I SAW NO GAIN. I did not upgrade the door on the new WSM. I have no issues controlling temp.
Are you having temp control issues?

Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.
If it’s leaking around the door you can put a gasket around it from www.bbqgaskets.com but the answer to your question will be www.cajunbandit.com

The Cajunbandit door is heavy gauge stainless steel and is difficult to bend. It has a much better latch than the original latch. Is it a necessity - No. And I think you can get just the latch. I think as long as there is a gasket on the door, and you can still latch the door shut, you should be good to go.

Although not a huge gain, with the Cajun bandit door you get a tight, positive locking latch, 305 heavy gauge stainless and most importantly you get something that will last. That cheap tin foil piece of garbage door they give you won’t last. Kind of disappointing out of Weber imho.
