    Made a GREAT smoked salsa!

    I made another batch this week.  I added the juice of 1 lime, and some salt & pepper to taste.   And no, everything was raw after the cold smoke.  Very Fresh!

    Lesson learned today...Place a deflector over the AMNPS...

    I put a couple of pork shoulders in this morning, placed them over to the right of my MES, and put my AMNPS on the bottom left.  Let them go for about 3 hours, and then put a rack of baby back ribs on the top rack.  It stretched all the way across the smoker.  Looked again in another 3 hours...

    How do you keep your glass door clean?

    Or do you even bother? Just smoking some wood for 45 minutes yesterday to season my smoker clouded up the glass on the door. I used 409 spray and some paper towels, and it cleaned up nicely. I'm guessing that if I don't keep up on it every time I smoke, it will get away from me? What do other...

    Where does my A-Mazin-Smoker fit in my MES30?

    Well, I was able to get it in the bottom left, just not easily. The only way I can get it in there is to grab the heating element tray and pull it to the right slightly. It goes in easier if I remove the drip tray, but I'm guessing that's not a very good idea?

    Where does my A-Mazin-Smoker fit in my MES30?

    Just got my MES30 yesterday. Don't see a great spot to place this tray. How do others do it? Do you put it on a rack? Put it in the water pan with no water? Thanks!

    Hello from Brownsburg, IN

    Hey everybody, I've been smoking very occasionally over the last twenty years. I've had a cheapo Brinkman smoker that I added an electric coil to the bottom of. For Father's Day, I finally upgraded to an MES. I GOT THE 30" model with Bluetooth. Now I'm ready to get serious! I've also been...
