    Long story short, for Mother's Day my mom requested some smoked chicken, so got a whole batch of thighs and breasts going however looks like they're gonna be done before her flight lands.

    Anyone use wood pellets in their MES?

    Definitely not on Bears level but I'll give my experience. When I use my AMNPS, I always leave the top vent completely open, pull the chip drawer out about an inch and a half, and completely remove the side loader unless it's a particularly windy day. Over time, I've found these steps will let...

    Why Cow tongue is so expensive.......

    Never have an issue when I get my side of beef to get the tongue, heart, liver, tail, and any extras they feel like throwing in. Guess it's just the area living in Iowa.

    Anyone use wood pellets in their MES?

    Fill a half gallon milk jug with water, freeze it. Place in the water tray above the AMNPS to keep the temperature down. Worked wonders for me the last time I cold smoked.

    How large a turkey in a 30" MES?

    Did a 17 pounder in my MES30 for Turkey Day this year, however I wouldn't go any larger than that. Ended up twining the legs together so they didn't hit the edges, and it took about 9 hours to cook.
