    Mouse in my Masterbuilt

    This past week I discovered that a mouse has been sneaking into my Masterbuilt Pro Dual Fuel smoker. I set a couple of traps under it, and then moved them inside hoping to catch him but no luck thus far. Today I went to check the traps and prep the smoker for a pork tenderloin and there he was...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    Thanks Bill! Has definitely slowed down the last hour and a half. I'm not opposed to foiling, but I'm going to wait a few more hours and see how things go.

    Those look delicious. I decided to just go for it and see what happens by not foiling. Sitting at 172 about six and a half hours in. Getting hungry.
