    One more "Mail Box Mod" for the AMNPS and the MES30 ...NEW PICTURES FOR ATTACHING ELBOW TO MAILBOX

    My main reason for adding the mailbox is salmon.....I have about 200 lbs in the freezer and have processed that much this season already. :) I prefer hot smoking it to cold, but even that is tough with the MES as I like to gradually increase the temp from 120-170°. So it's hard to get chips...

    Thanks Dave. Picked up the supplies today. I have the MES 40" 2.5 from Sam's so hopefully it's a pretty easy to setup. I think I want to leave the MES intact as is, will that work?

    Basically smoked everything but lamb...low and slow, or hotter? Also, there's a cardboard cylinder in the middle of it...will that be ok? Or should I try pulling it out after thawing?

    Help me figure out what I have...and what to do with it!

    So my brother in law gave me a couple of these hunks of lamb that are made to put on a rotisserie to make gyros. So I'm told. It looks like ground lamb that is packed together somehow. He says it's quality meat he got from a butcher, but they just moved and are without a freezer for now, so I...
