So I ran it last night, just out of the box noting sprayed in it or no smoke, at 275 for about 3hrs was still getting a oil smell so I will run it again today to see If I can get that smell gone. then I will spray it down with some oil and put smoke to it, Do not know if I will use it today or not.

Just curious how to tell a MES is a gen 1 ? And if someone was gonna get a MES, should it be gen 1 ? Thanks !
Gen 1 has the controls in the back, Gen 2 has controls in the front - Yes get the Gen 1. I found this one in sportsmans Guide for 160.00 + Free shipping, been wanting one for a while now and got a nice little check from work so I thought why the heck not. My fridge smoker only goes to 220, I wanted a little more heat so I thought this was the ticket, it goes to 275* 

Won't take long to fill this smoker

Thanks for the info DS ! This is turning into an MES/NFL thread ! :biggrin:
 
 
PH Thanks, yes I probably will, now just to find the time. hey the handles on the side look great did you just zip screw them in or nut and bolt them, I may do that till I get my cart built. 

A full smoker is a happy smoker

DS
These are the handles I used.  Just screwed them in between the shelves in case a bolt was ever needed in the future.  They hold tight with no issues.

WARNING; THREAD HIJACK IN PROGRESS!!!! DS, I live near Seattle but don't follow football. However, some friends last year invited us to their house last year for a playoff party to watch the Seahawks play the 49ers. The game was glorious so we watched the Super Bowl at home. Even more glorious. On Thanksgiving we watched the Seahawks beat the 49ers again. Looks like they have a legitimate shot at making the playoffs again this year.
