    Masterbuilt 20070106 30-Inch Electric Smokehouse Smoker

    Found them Dave, did clean up with very, very hot water. Made 7 lbs pulled beef 2day, 7 hr smoke on the MES, beef is totally awesome dude! Used two chuck roasts, pulled apart with my hands. Used pecan chips, what a different but good flavor!

    Where exactly on the back wall is that hi temp limit switch and the temp sensor? Is it that little nubbin sticking out the back on the inside of the smoker? I tried cleaning that with just water and just water doesn't cut it.

    Hello Dave, I had read that you want to keep the high and low temp sensors clean on another posting.

    Can't say thanks enough for the quick reply Bear. Have two 3 lb. chuck roasts that I will smoke for pulled beef tomorrow, can't wait to see how it turns out.

    I tried cleaning the back of the smoker the way the owners manual says with just water and it did nothing. What do you suggest for getting it clean? Any and all help on your part would be very appreciated. Thanks, Craig

    Owners manual advises to only have drip pan and chip pan when seasoning unit the first time. 3 hours set at 275 and the last 45 minutes you put in your wood chips. I also sprayed the inside with Pam prior to seasoning.

    Did the boil test last night and within -1 degree, temp never got above 211.1 and fluctuated back and forth to 210.9, not to shabby.

    Got the new controller and she's doing just as you said, when first plugged in over shoots target temp but then comes on back down. Seasoned it a couple nights ago and now making smoked meat loaf. Temps are holding between 172-178 on controller so we're doing good. I will clean the back after...

    It's a brand new unit but that is an excellent idea and I will give it a go. Thanks for the heads up. Did get a new controller from Masterbuilt and unit is working fine now. Making meat loaf on the MES right now.

    LadyGT thanks for the reply. I called Masterbuilt on Monday and sat an hour and a half on ignore (hold) b4 I talked to Customer Service.  Then on top of that the person that I talked to kept arguing with me about the temperature fluctuation. She kept insisting that there is a 10 to 15 degree...

    Electric Smoker

    Hi All. I live in Illinois just 50 miles south of the Wisconsin border so we live in a four season state. I'm looking to purchase an electric smoker which I can set outside on my deck next to my patio door and smoke meat with during the winter. Any hints or suggestions?

    Couldn't help noticing the fish hanging in your post, did you smoke them? I can remember having smoked chubs when I was a kid that my father would pick up at a fish market on Foster Ave.in Chicago every once in a while, it was such a treat!
