    Wings & Drummies - 3 Ways

    I use a flavor injector to inject the sauce (usually clarified butter and hot sauce) into the wing prior to smoking. I get the grill as hot as possible and put the wings onto it after removing from the smoker to crisp the skin.

    Masterbuilt Response

    I installed the retro kit.  It wasn't the same size (height) as the original part so the heating element had to be bent to accommodate.  MES customer support told me it wouldn't hurt the element.

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Tried to install my retro kit today.  It seems as nothing is easy.  Hopefully they sent me the wrong part. UPDATE: Contacted the customer support center and they assured me that bending the heating element would not hurt it.  Installed the retro kit and it is seasoning now.

    Masterbuilt Response

    Emailed BMTechGuy and Masterbuilt several times and never received a response.  It's difficult for me to call them with my work schedule.  Do they expect me to take a day off to call their tech support?  It's starting to get frustrating.  Any other ideas?

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    I'm trying to get a retro kit.  Emailed MBTechGuy and Masterbuilt a few times and haven't received a reply.  It's extremely difficult to call them during the week with my work schedule.  How do I go about getting a retro kit without taking a day off of work to call them?

    Where is the forum for baked beans!!!! You can't have ribs without beans!

    I made a large batch of Dutch's baked beans and added a pound or two of smoked pulled pork.   I always make extra brisket, sausage, etc and freeze it in foodsaver sealed bags. Some of that ends up joining the bacon from the original recipe with the beans.  People destroyed those beans.  They are...

    Decisions Decisions. Which ES to purchase

    You don't need a window (that turns black with use) or an inside light.  Check out the price difference ($159 at walmart).  It's the same smoker without the window, light, and temp probe.  You can get an external meat thermometer (Run the probe through the vent in the top of the smoker) for...

    I've also substituted my homemade chocolate Amaretto ice cream for the ganache.  The flavor combinations are outstanding.
