    2011 Christmas Challenge: Prime Rib (Q-View)

    Only thing I was disappointed in was the Au Jus....just went with beef broth, onions, carrots, and some Worcestershire....and of course the drippings.  Came out with like a bitter-sweet taste.  Any idea where I went wrong or how to improve it?

    2011 Christmas Challenge: Prime Rib (Q-View)

    Going only on what I have read here, I gave it a shot today....and am VERY happy with the results. Made up a whiskey-based marinade with various spices and brushed it on.  Then I covered with Montreal.  Threw it in the fridge for 36 hours. Broke in my new cheapo-MES 30 knock off and my AMZN...

    Cajun Injector - a 30" MES with extra features (Pics) - every MES owner should see this

    The bad news:  A friend borrowed my MES a month ago, and when I went to get it back lat night.....I opened it to find out, he left uncleaned and under an awning that didn't quite keep the rain out.  So the inside was covered in mold and mildew.  Disgusting.  He thinks he can clean it, I'm not so...

    I've been soaking the grates and drip pan, then wiping down the inside with just water (no soap!).  Also be sure to wipe down the door seal each time.

    30' MES and black, charred chips

    So, I believe I have found a fix, but it certainly is not ideal.  If you look at the below picture, instead of loading chips in the designed chip tray, I tried putting some chips on the metal to the LEFT of the tray.  This piece is actually under the heating element when the tray is slid all the...

    30' MES and black, charred chips

    In a few threads people were discussing the fact that their chips were not burning to ash, but rather just charring to black.  This is OK at high temps, but at lower temps (220-240), smoke is very difficult to generate. Through some research, it appears that there is now a small (maybe 1/4...

    MES Electric Smoker Cooking Too Fast???

    My MES did a 7lb whole chicken (beer can method) in just over 2 hours yesterday.  I was freaked out it went so fast.  Smoked at about 260. Came out wonderful though.  I ended up pulling it just as I would pork butt and we had sandwiches.
