    Possible to overfill AMNPS?

    I lit both ends and my mailbox was pillowing... no fires. But it almost seemed like the coals were being choked... So i scrapped that and started over because i want TBS. Seems ok now, i only lit one end this time in the mailbox.Looks good

    MY MES 40 incher hates me....

    So backstory, had 1 unit.. 2nd gen unit . Smoke exits on side, not top (too bad) anyway, 1st unit failed to properly report temps vs my own temp calcs. Masterbuilt replaced it under warranty. Second unit... worked good for the first few smokes, and now this is where i am at 4-5 months later. I...

    Thoughts on MES 40 inch "bottom" of butt being Leathery/dry? + Pork for 75-100 question..

    Is this just the way it is? My favorite part is when the sweet spicy bark melts in the mouth, usually the inside is perfect as well. I was up in blue ridge for the BBQ fest last week, and while meat street's bbq was decent, it wasn't as good as my own.But i am biased, i prefer a lot of...

    Picked up some "Pork Fat" from Win Dixie...

    And 6 hours later my dogs are crazy...    This is like BARK without the butt,  while a little drier on some parts, it's definitely gelatinous. melting in your fingers. I love my some buttery fall apart pork. But, i have an addiction to the fat cap, i rarely can get the butt in the cooler without...

    Bottom Always leathery?

    Anyone know what i am doing wrong that the bottom of the pork butt, is always like a leathery weird texture? Top with fat cap is like butter when it's ready. But, it seems like this bottom part is garbage. I am not talking about the interior of the butt or even past 2 cm's from bottom maybe...
