    I had a message from a member on the forum asking about my purchase and wanted to share with the forum. I absolutely love it. I also purchased the broiler kit. While the kit basically consists of some cheap sheet metal, a few screws and a heating element it works great for caramelizing the ribs...

    Best time of year to buy one-black Friday?

    You may consider purchasing thru amazon if you are interested in an extended warranty. These newer models have lots of bells and whistles that may have issues down the road. Also might look at the 40"

    New Masterbuilt smoker: model 340

    I ordered the new model MES440 but it arrived damaged. I sent it back just before vacation and amazon dropped the ball on shipping the replacement. When I got home I had to call and they shipped another one out. The day the replacement was supposed to arrive I had to call amazon again as it...

    New to smoking-need suggestions

    my 2 cents. I just had to replace an old analog smoker with a new one and wanted a 40" but started to question getting a 30". I did this whole back and forth thing for a couple weeks and got some more input on this forum. Save yourself time and money in the long run and get a 40" For $250-$300...

    I went ahead and bought the 440s (40") with 4yr warranty so when those fancy bells and whistles go ca-put I'm covered. Also picked up the broiler add-on but I didn't grab the rotisserie. Nobody that owns a 400 series commented and I really needed another smoker up in running. After a few runs...

    My old smoker is a quick fix but as its an analog I'd rather PID it or fix/donate to a friend. my days of that temperamental analog dial are over :) I have been looking at AMNPS already and thanks for a great suggestion. The 400's have a seperate element and fan control just for the smoke box...

I've been looking for the last 2 weeks and decided on a new MES 130P for $250(amazon) We have all seen the new and high priced MES 430s and 440s with all the bells whistles.It's within my...
