    MES 40 questions

    Not enough smoke in the mes 40.....?

    Like everyone says, get the AMNPS.  It works great.  Chips will produce alot of smoke but they just dont last long.  Ill probably still use chips in mine from time to time, the AMNPS is the way to go.  When you get it going, you will get hours of good smoke.

    First brisket loaded in the MES

    It turned out ok.  Tasted pretty good.  I cubed up the point to make some burnt ends and I kinda actually burnt them.  Guess I left them on a little to long, I had fired up the weber to finish them off.  I wasn't able to get any pics when i sliced it up yesterday.  I did bring some for lunch...

    First brisket loaded in the MES

    Well, here is the finished product. It looks like I burnt it to death. I guess ill see when I slice it up. Cook time was just shy of 16 hours at 225-230. AMNPS worked out great. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

    First brisket loaded in the MES

    I just had to go take a look at it. 12 hrs cook time and IT of 187. Of course the point probbed like butter but the flat was still putting up some resistance. I knew it was early but couldn't wait. I closed the door and waiting some more. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

    First brisket loaded in the MES

    Just went and added the beef stock to the veggys for the au jus. After about 1.5 hrs the IT is 105°. Figured it would take longer for that hunk of meat. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

    First brisket loaded in the MES

    Yep, smoking my first brisket tonight. Got an 11 lb packer. It had a pretty thick fat cap so I trimmed it up best I could. I injected it with some beef stock then sprinkled on some salt, pepper, and Montreal steak seasoning. I'm going to make ChefJJ's au ju sauce to go with it. Hopefully...

    Brisket Breakdown...1st timer!!!

    Chef JJ, do you cook the au jus sauce in your MES. Im thinking about doing it tonight in my 40. I've got one of those aluminium pans but was wondering about how rge heat and smoke would flow around the pan. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

    okay Temp questions..

    The first time I used mine it was within 5-10° of my maverick. Today it was reading in the neighborhood of 30° higher than maverick. Guess it could have to do with probe placement to though. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

    AMNPS and MES

    I have an MES40.  Do you put water/juice in the pan while using the AMNPS.  I just opened mine up to foil my ribs after 2 hours and almost one entire row had burned on the AMNPS.  I didnt have the chip try pulled out but I did pull out the loader.  It seems like its struggling to kemp the temp...

    AMNPS and MES

    I'm looking for some tips on using the AMNPS with my MES. I know its been talked about before, but I'm browsing on my phone and its hard to search. The instructions say not to use water in pan. Will it effect it? I've got my chip loader pulled out about 2" and my exhaust about half open...

    Chipotle ABT's with lil smokies and ABT's with habenero cheese and lil smokies

    They look good. I want to try doing that myself. What temp do you smoke these at? How do you know when they are done, when the bacon is crispy? Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

    MES40 first smoke and first thoughts

    Saturday I did my first smoke with my MES.  I seasoned it Friday night and had some concerns as my maverick was reading about 25deg off from the MES controller.  For the smoke I did a boston but.  I preheated the MES for about 1.5 hours before loading it.  It was set at 260.  For the most par...
