    Rec Tec Bullseye; D.O.A.

    I’m sorry to hear that you’re still having to deal with this issue, regardless of whether you have available time or not. You made your decision to choose a Bullseye based upon good experiences on prior equipment purchases from Rec Tec. I understand marketing and having to hit price points for...

    Rec Tec Stampede Review

    Dan, great information! I would like to purchase a pellet grill and have decided on Rec Tec. I’m back-and-forth between the Stampede and the Bull, but leaning more towards the Stampede. According to the Rec Tec website, the Stampede has a 9” internal height clearance, while the Bull is 9.5”...

    What's the difference...

    I can't speak about other thermometers, but my vote (albeit, biased) goes to the Thermapen Mk4! I had the Thermapen Classic for roughly four years and it served me well. I used the heck out of it and never had to change the battery. Being a southpaw, though, it was a bit of an inconvenience to...

    Brisket on Big Steel Keg

    Not a problem, bud! Keep experimenting and you'll keep learning! God knows I'm always learning something new or improving upon something I thought I knew well while grilling or smoking a new meal. Regarding cold smokes, pick yourself up an AMNPS from here: https://www.amazenproducts.com/ or...

    Brisket on Big Steel Keg

    Canuck, I have the same setup as you do (Broil King Keg with a CyberQ) and don't need to refill with lump when doing long low-'n-slows. Forget everything that you've ever read about covering the air holes in the fire bowl of your keg with lump. Dump in a good amount of lump (I dump in roughly...

    Wow! I never imagined that the new models would be so problematic back when I started this thread! I'm so sorry to hear about all of the probems plaguing the new MES units and I certainly hope, for the sake of my SMF brethren, that these issues get resolved quickly by Masterbuilt. I still have...

    Masterbuilt Customer Service Success Story

    Well, unfortunately, the story continues, but we're still headed towards a positive resolution! Yesterday, I received the replacement remote that Masterbuilt sent out to me. I tried dozens of times to synchronize the smoker to the remote, but was unsuccessful. I even tried three different sets...

    Masterbuilt Customer Service Success Story

    I just wanted to take a moment to share my positive experience with Masterbuilt's customer service with all of you. This weekend, I was going to use my MES40, but couldn't use the remote because roughly half of the digits on the LCD display were unreadable. I switched out three different sets...

    First Corned Beef Pastrami's (w/ Q-view)

    I'm hardly an expert, my friend, but thank you for the show of confidence! LOL! By the way, it was YOUR smoke that had the darned traffic on I-95 backed up for miles!!! The radio was saying that it was fog. I've never experienced fog that smelled like pastrami, so I knew better than to believe...

    BBQ Themed Gumbo

    Please, everyone, HEED THIS WARNING! When preparing my first-ever roux a few months ago, I turned around to kiss goodbye to a family member and when I turned, the roux accidentally splashed up and landed on my left ring and middle finger. It was a nasty burn which has left some scarring. I'm not...
