    Always good to have a back up plan.  :)

    Fireplace rope and adhesive specialty website.

    One store mall eh?  LOL.  Well, apparently here you throw away the smoker rather than try to fix it.  They all sell smokers but they look at you like you are from another planet when you want a heat rated adhesive and/or fireplace rope or stove gasket rope.  I was sent back to aisle that sells...

    Fireplace rope and adhesive specialty website.

    I've spent a while trying to find the above items.  I've browsed Home Depot and Lowe's aisles endlessly being sent to various aisles assured I'd find what I was looking for there only to finally find someone who told me they don't carry it.  I ordered some from Amazon but the adhesive was so dry...

    Masterbuilt Electric Smoker "Now at Sam's Club"

    Yeah, I was on the verge of buying a MES because the little $99 Brinkman I have is too small to put as much as I'd like in there but after spending a month reading, here mostly, but other places too, the problems that come with the MES and most other affordable smokers are just to many for me to...

    Just got off the phone with Masterbuilt

Widest unit I've seen without spending a ton.   Lots of good reviews, but almost...

    Thanks for the welcome.  I love the tips on this site.  For instance: I didn't know you didn't put your meat in a tray to smoke it.  I didn't know you just put it on the rack and let the drippings find a drip pan and become gravy.  I found that out on this site several months ago.  It's a good...

    New to the forum but not new to Smoking Meat.  I've been working my way through the recipes for at least a year, probably more. I'm hooked. While I have experimented endlessly and taught myself some things, everything else I've learned about smoking I learned here.  I have a Brinkmann electric...

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Kept noticing in the newsletter the question about MES owners.  I had no idea what that meant so I ignored it.  Today I was out looking at  (M)asterbuilt (E)lectric (S)mokers when it hit me right between the eyes.  Duh.  I haven't used an MES yet but I have a Brinkman Electric (BES?) that I've...
