    Ribs taking too long?

    Have you got any links on where to purchase the rollout switch and high temp connectors?

    Ribs taking too long?

    My Auber won't be in until Friday but I got started on the MES right away. In my case it couldn't have been easier. On the bottom of the MES there was an access panel. Just a few Phillips head screws and it comes right off. Behind this access panel the wires from the power cord plug into a big...

    Ribs taking too long?

    I went ahead and ordered the Auber Instruments controller. Even if MasterBuilt replaces my controller under warranty, it's not going to work as good as the Auber Instruments controller. The Auber Instruments controller can do multiple steps based on time or internal meat temp and when final...

    Ribs taking too long?

    The PitmasterIQ looks very cool. It is essentially doing the same thing as the Auber Instruments controller. By that I mean it is monitoring the temperature and making adjustments as necessary to maintain a precise temperature. It looks to be about the same price as well. By the way, what is a UDS?

    Ribs taking too long?

    I purchased a dual probe ThermoPro thermometer from Amazon and decided to take another stab at ribs. The ribs came out great. I was able to maintain 225F but I had to set the smoker to 275F to do so. So it was off by 50F at this temperature. While I was able to maintain 225F, I think I will...

    Ribs taking too long?

    Well thank you all for the help. I got a oven thermometer at Wal-Mart and tested last night. The unit is about 30 degrees lower than it should be. So when I set it to 225, I was probably smoking at around 195. Still, I'm not sure why it didn't finish when I set it to 250. That should have...

    Ribs taking too long?

    I did not foil at three hours. I'm embarrassed to say I don't know what kind of ribs they were. I just grabbed something at Walmart. They were pork for sure and big ribs. I set the temperature to 225 using the control panel on the smoker itself. It's supposed to just maintain that temp.

    Ribs taking too long?

    Am I at risk eating these or do you think they just won't be good?

    Ribs taking too long?

    So I bought an electric smoker at Lowe's and decided to smoke some ribs. This thread looked to have some good advice. 17 hours later I still only have an internal temperature of 186F. I guess my question is, Does this seem right? I thought this was only going to take 6 hours or so. After...
