I have been considering buying a replacement for my MES40 for awhile as the side is rusting and the controller's display is going out. It's lasted almost 10 years. However, the only...

    Rewiring from the element Masterbuilt Electric 40”

    I keep almost buying a new MB20070122 since my old 40's screen is dying so much that I can barely see the numbers. I keep it outside all the time, covered. Not sure a cover would work well with that thing on top though.

    MES 40" digital MB20070122

    speaking of this model, it's on Amazon still but it does not exist on the MB website. Makes me think they are EOL'ing it and something else may be coming? Or they are discontinuing the 40" electric. I have the 20070115 currently but the screen covering is peeling off and the numbers are...

    sounds like you might have not had thin blue smoke, but heavy white smoke.

    I will do science to it! Smoke + Sous Vide

    FYI Sous Vide literally means "under vacuum". So, it does have to do with that. That being said, I'm on your side. Anything I don't smoke, I sous vide. I'm thinking of combining and doing a 72 hour brisket with a few hours smoked at the end.
