The butt came out great and not as SMOKEY as the last 1. My wife rather have just a hint of smoke. This was my 1st turkey and next time I will pull it out at 160, I pulled it out at about 170 and it was good just a little to dry for me. Even though when I pulled the prob out juice was coming...

Been using the MES 30 for a while and got it down pretty good for timing and temp. Good therms are a must. But the built in is only about 1-3 Degs off, not enough NOT to use it. Put the butt on last night bout 11:00pm and went to sleep, got up at 3:00am and hit the 140 in 4 no problem. turkey...

Hello Al Some finished pics from yeterdays smoke and todays dinner. Pulled Pork samies. Last nights bottom round dinner. Todays pulled pork with finishing sause and creamy coleslaw.

We just had the bottom round for dinner, which was darn good for considered a tuff piece of beef. I wrapped in foil and set in the oven (OFF) for about 2hrs. Sliced about 1/2" and served with veggie and potatoes. Just checked the butts and still holding about 174-177.

This NY weather is good for doing some smoken. not good for any winter sports thats for sure... I'll smoke anyday day instead of shovel snow....LOL A balmmmmy 44Deg's out now.

Pulled bottom round at 155 and foiled. The butts are stalled at 168 set at 225. From what I read about meat stalling is... "DONT TOUCH THE TEMP"... wait it out..... Have to add: When I pulled the bottom round out I took the external prob that was in it and stuck in the second butt and the...

The bottom has about another 1hr and the butts are sitting at 165 now and a ways to go. AMPS is smoken away. Started at 7:30am today. Alls looking good...

Ok, got a good deal today and picked up 2 pork butts (5-6lb each) and 1 beef bottom round (4lb). I just love dusted them and in the fridge. I will be starting them tomorrow morning about 7am. We will be eating the bottom round for dinner tomorrow and butts for a pulled pork feat for Thurs. Im...

same screws because the timer/setting unit is the same. Just ask for the mounting screws.

ZMAN When I purchased mine from Lowes I also was missing the 2 screws for the digital timer/heat setting unit. I just called MB and they sent out 2 right away. Is this the #20070511 modle?

Im not near a pro smoker but got my feet wet. The MES and AMPS is great combo for smokin. Also I think it lets you controll temp better then adding more chips. I seem to get a good increase in temp with chips them AMPS. No need to fill, or open door to empy tray, Etc. Get the AMPS going and at...

I used my AMPS 2 times so far and worked great both times. The first time I did need to relight. But I had opened the chip tray and loader a little more and the smoke was rolling after that. I simply lit the pellets and let them go for about 15mins tossed in the MES and we were smokin. Great...

Ok, this was my 2nd smoke so far with the MES 30 and the AMAZN pellet smoker. I did a batch of ribs. Since I was not sure how they would come out I just did a single small rack. Did my own rub and set in fridge overnight. Set MES to 225 and did a 3-2-1. They came out real good. I did the last...

Yes,.... I did even check the internal Therm. with ice water and it was at 33Degs (even though I dident use it). I did check with the setting I had on my MES of digital setting of 225 as to the oven Therm I picked up and it was prety close. From what I heard in here they mostly read higher...

I will be trying a brisket soon, and from what I have read on here that MOST meat is set about 225 on the MES rigs and the meat will have a stall time and NOT to touch the temp... RIDE IT OUT.
