    New chip tray in MES

    I had the same problem with chips catching fire on Saturday after I also installed the new chip box/tray.  The first load of chips I didn't soak and they lit off.  The second load I soaked for about 1/2 an hour, I pulled the chip loader to check on them, they were fine, as soon as I put the...

    Round 2 with the MES 30: 3 slabs of Baby Back's (Q-vue)

    After my first smoke last weekend on the MES 30 of two (2) turkey breasts, four (4) chicken breasts and a GB bacon cheddar fatty turning out OK, but not great, I wanted a chance at redemption.  Stopped at Sam's and picked up a pack of trimmed baby backs to smoke. I had some rubs at the house...

    First Smoke - WSM - Kansas City Spare Ribs

    Looking to smoke some ribs this weekend and am going to do the 3-2-1 method as before I got my smoker I would make my ribs in the oven wrapped in foil then finish on the grill and they were always tender and juicy.  I do have a questions (probably stupid) about doing this on the smoker.  When...

    First smoke on MES30 (Turkey and chicken breasts)

    Al, I pulled them at 170°F.  Probably a little to long.  The skin was not on as I bought them skinless, I'm sure the skin would have helped.  My brine was a pretty much Tip's brine that I found on here with a few minor additions/subtractions.  I did not inject the breasts at all, will have to...

    First smoke on MES30 (Turkey and chicken breasts)

    yeah, yeah, I get it.  I will post pictures next time for sure.  But no one has any suggestions for keeping the breasts juicer?  I don't see how the AMS would help with this.

    First smoke on MES30 (Turkey and chicken breasts)

    Haha, yeah I figured I was going to get that sooner or later!  I plan on getting an AMS soone, but I have five bags of chips that my wife bought me that I want to get through first.  I can take some of the few leftovers that I have, but they won't be fresh from the smoker.

    Turkey/Bacon Wraps

    What temp did you have your MES set at?  I'm smoking two turkey breasts this weekend.  Brining them tomorrow then doing one with a citrus rub and the other with a spicy rub.  May have to wrap the spicy one in bacon like this.  Looks great!  Now I'm really hungry for lunch.

    Thanks everyone!  I think I already have the sickness.  I dreamed about smoking food on Sunday night!!  I did sign up for the e-course and have received the first email on choosing meats.  I gotta check my junk folder as I didn't get the second lesson yet.  I should have some pictures from...
