    Can someone please give me some info on how you determine how much to open the vent on your MES?  On my wood smoker, I adjust to maintain temperature...not sure if this applies with MES electric element working to control temperature.

    New to the forum, but not new to smoking

    Looking forward to the venture with you all...I'm also new to the MES smoking processes and hoping to gain some knowledge.  I've done a lot of smoking/BBQing on my charcoal grill but am also looking to further my knowledge with this MES technique.

    Hello Everyone

    Gary, thanks for the feedback and the welcome response.  I did notice that on your reply that you have a link for: EAST TEXAS STYLE BRISKET & RIBS.  When I hit the link, nothing comes up...Is there something I'm doing wrong or another way to get to the link?
