    PSA - MES 30" ANALOG

    Obviously the 40" is 10" higher, but is it also wider/deeper?

    PSA - MES 30" ANALOG

    I do love my MES 30" analog, which I bought a few years ago [5? 6?]] to start a tradition of smoked turkey for Thanksgiving. It serves me very well, have always gotten good meals out of it. BUT BUT BUT - it is NOT WIDE ENOUGH to lay out a full rack of ribs on it's racks, too short by about 3...

    TP20 vs Inkbird IRF-4S

    I can't really think of ANY method that is not subject to temp swings at some point :emoji_smile:

    TP20 vs Inkbird IRF-4S

    I have an analog MES 30" electric. Are you referring to the fact that an analog is ridiculously hard to set temp accurately? Or something else...?

    Ribs with BBQ sauce question

    My rub is too, and I never do either. But out of 6 racks, I am deferring a couple to Birthday Boy's preference :emoji_wink:

    Ribs with BBQ sauce question

    Since I use an analog smoker, temp control is not terribly precise - sometimes it is down at 225, sometimes up to 275. Averages 250 though. Do you sauce just one time, or 2-3 times?

    Ribs with BBQ sauce question

    Do you pout the sauce on just once, or 2-3 times?

    Ribs with BBQ sauce question

    First let me start by saying I like my ribs not cooked with BBQ sauce. I make a mean homemade sauce, but always serve it on the side, as I prefer more Texas-style - dry rub only. I am a big fan of, and have had great success with, the 3-2-1 method, using my analog MES, hovering around the 250f...

    Brine or Inject?

    And what of the remaining ingredients?

    Smoke your turkey and have crispy skin!

    intriguing. How big a bird and how long in the grill? (You must have a big grill to be able to have the bird there without any of the burners lit underneath it!)

    Somked Turkey Questions for Thanksgiving.

    Overnight is fine if you take it out in the morning :emoji_slight_smile: And fwiw, I have never noticed a difference by letting air-dry an additional day. Patting dry in and out has always proven sufficient, esp for a smaller bird. Think about it - you just spent hours getting the bird moist -...

    Somked Turkey Questions for Thanksgiving.

    Loving all the feedback here! Only thing that I would add is not to brine the 10-12lb bird for 24 hours. Too long a brine will turn the meat spongy/mushy in my experience. Even a 16lb bird I find 18 hours is about the max, and for a 10-12 I would keep it to 12 hours at the most

    My usual Turkey Purveyor is out this year :-( Has anyone tried a Whole Foods Fresh Organic turkey?

    They are pricey compared to more generic brands, but after my 50c Amazon Prime discount, they come in about $1/lb less than the turkey farmer. :emoji_relaxed:
