    Smoking a 20 pound turkey for Thanksgiving

    You can do it either way.  I have done them both and really have not see a big difference.  I lean toward injecting a few hours ahead of time, but I am not stuck on it.  I think the bigger issue is doing it right.  Load your injector and try to inject a large amount in each breast with one poke...

    MES40 Tray Upgrade kit - Modify it before installing?

    Are you guys modifying the try upgrade kit at all before installing it?  I saw people drill holes in the side of the original tray unit so I want to see if that's suggested on the new one before I install it.  Suggestions?

    Looking for a Turkey Fryer

    I ordered that same butterball fryer this year.  Going to fry a 13 lb turkey and then smoke a large turkey breast.  Looking forward to trying out the fryer.  It looks to be far easier and safer then the propane ones I have used over the years.

    MES 40 electric smoking Ribs today. Water or not?

    Thank you both.  I am use to no water and I think I liked the ribs better using that method.  I am still learning this smoker though.  My ribs turned out good, but not as good as I use to make.  I think I may try no water next time.  WHen I use to use my grill, I would grill them with indirect...

    MES 40 electric smoking Ribs today. Water or not?

    I am breaking in my MES 40 electric smoker to day.  I have ribs in it and they are smelling great.  :) I have a question on the water bowl.  Do you guys always use the water bowl when smoking or only on certain types of things?  I began smoking on my grill years ago with a smoker box add on.  i...

    What is up with the MBS 40? Getting hard to find.

    Buy the membership if you are buying the smoker.  It pays for itself right there.  Plus, they have a pretty good meat department.  I use their baby back ribs quite a bit.

    What is up with the MBS 40? Getting hard to find.

    Just an update. This smoker seems to be a very good unit.  I am enjoying the remote control.  Someone asked about the range.  My home is 3500Sq feet and I can use it anywhere in the house.  The smoker is on my back patio.  It's a very convenient feature.  The wheels are a welcome addition.  My...

    What is up with the MBS 40? Getting hard to find.

    Never done cold smoking.  Looks interesting but I need to read up on it to understand how it works.  Does that product just sit inside my existing smoker?

    Will do.  I am going to season it tomorrow.  I just read the manual and it looks pretty simple to put together so I will knock it out in the am and then set it up to season.  Ribs this weekend for sure.  :)

    What is up with the MBS 40? Getting hard to find.

    I posted 3 pics, but got a message about the message being held up since I was new.  The ones I got are like the smaller ones you posted.  The manual says they hold 1 cup of chips.

OK.  I opened the smoker and grabbed the manual.  What do you want to know?  It's 1200 watt for sure.  I saw that on the back of it.  It's  really nice lookiing...
