What do you want to cook? The only issue with the 22†is cooking area. If you want to smoke 3 racks of ribs it’s possible but not easy.
If the focus is grilling, steaks etc. performer all the way.
if the focus is larger smokes, then the WSM or even the gravity.
I have a gravity 1050 and. I share of kettles and they both require a bit of practice. The kettle requires practice with charcoal management and vents and the gravity requires practice with wiring and electronics. :-)
I do 3 all the time - I use a Weber rib rack, to stand them on edge, and flip them vertically about halfway through the cook. I've done 5 (the max the rack holds) but had to add time to the cook, as there was little to no airflow between slabs of ribs when the rack was full like that.

I’d bump it to the 26 if it’s not to late. You will never regret the 26. Kettles rock. Maybe Mr. Bones has an extra one laying about you can test drive? 😃
Unfortunately 26 seems to be sold out everywhere right now. Anyone know any insider info on a place to pick one up or when they'll be back in stock anywhere?
