    Will short and thick do the trick?

    I've been trying to convince women that 'short and thick' does the trick for years.

    How often do you smoke?

    A couple of times a day, I suppose.  I just bought one of those e-cigs, so I'll just huff and puff on that to get me by.   I get pretty crazy on the weekends though.

    RiverGrille Farmers Grill and Smoker

    I just bought this smoker on Friday and really enjoy it.  I'm upgrading from a Masterbuilt Electric Smoker, so it's a completely different world for me.  Assembly was quite simple if you have a partner, as the instructions suggest you do. A few hours later and I had a nice hot bed of coals in...

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    Then just go out and buy a cover yourself.  I honestly don't see what all the fuss is about.  I've never had an issue with my cover.   If there's a sour taste in your mouth, then there's a sour taste in your mouth.  If you don't like the cover, then don't purchase it. You say that you aren't...

    Some people just aren't built to own an electric smoker.

    Cleaning the Masterbuilt Cold Smoker??

    I cleaned mine with a wire brush, as I also had this problem pretty bad.  I'd put a shoulder butt or brisket on at night before bed, and in the morning whenI wake up there are about 1/4 of the chips stuck to the side of the chute. I really scrubbed the hell out of mine with the wire brush and...

    New guy, first smoker, any recommendations?

    I found a lot of success using an aluminum baking pan, as small as possible height-wise.  Soak 1/3 to 1/2 of your wood chips and toss them into the baking sheet.  Cover with foil, poke your holes, and put the pan directly onto your burner covers.   That should provide a good amount of smoke on...

    All-night brisket

    I use the Masterbuilt Cold Smoker kit.  It's electric, just like the MES, and it's what I use to smoke brisket or pulled porks overnight.

    Is it possible/easy to change doors on MES smokers?

    Why don't you just buy the one with the window and put it on a 6 foot tall table?

    Masterbuilt warranty only 90 days???

    Some people just shouldn't own an electric smoker.

    Master built electric 30 smoker

    Or you can get the Masterbuilt Cold Smoking Kit, as some people, including myself, prefer that.

    That's not the worst idea in the world.

    MES Cold Smoker Question

    I have the Cold Smoker attachment and love it. It will, on occasion, catch fire if you expose the bottom chips to oxygen.  If you need to open the cap for whatever reason, I suggest turning the heating element off for 10-15 minutes prior.  I have had to add chips halfway through a smoke, but do...
