    Small fire in MES 30. Need advice

    I'm smoking ribs and I am about an 1.5 hours in. I noticed it was starting to rain/snow (which it wasn't suppose to do today) and without thinking slowly slid the smoker over so it would be under an overhang. I completely forgot about the liquid inside (I know don't ask kids are off today) and...

    MES 30 and Mav temp issues

    This was after about an hour and a half in foil. After around 35 mins back in the smoker without foil I did the toothpick trick. It went in and about half way in it stopped. Not sure if it hit meat or bone. I added sauce and I'm going to pull them off in about 15 mins or so

    MES 30 and Mav temp issues

    Being that my ribs cooked for 2.5 hours at 190 approximately. Should I cook them a little longer while foiled or after I remove them from tbe foil? Or does it not matter? Thanks again for all the help and advice.
