Camp Chef got back to me - there is no bottom shelf for the 36" models available. Seems odd to me - the legs have holes for a shelf. I guess they are the same legs as the 24" models. Perhaps I will need to make my own shelf....
I got a great new smoker for Father's Day - Camp Chef SmokePro SGX36 in bronze - my wife even got the sear burner. I have a 12lb pork butt smoking away now and am very pleased with the smoker.
I would like to have a lower shelf for this model and I see that the legs have holes for the bolts...

Before I got the AMNPS going I would have to resupply the chips from time to time. I found that this method causes uneven smoke on the meat as you get a lot when the chips go in and none when they are consumed. This cycle is repeated over and over - not to mention you...
I am thinking of using a computer fan on my mailbox mod on an MES 30. How many CFM do you think that fan is giving you? Are you using a transformer down to 12VDC for the fan?

I bailed on the chips entirely and use the AMNPS in a mailbox mod and it works perfectly. I also have sand in the water tray and have never had a moisture issue. I never had much luck with the AMNPS in the smoker itself and it took a few iterations to get the air flow right when I made my...

Any...
Thanks Dave - the chip tray is out when I smoke with the mailbox.
I think your thoughts about the relative "dryness" of the pellets may be a clue. I am using Todd's Pitmaster's Choice blend and I just checked the AMNPS that I left out in open air last night and it looks like it burned for...
Thanks - I have 6 smaller holes so I will enlarge them a bit to see how that goes. 6 half inch holes adds up to about 1.17 square inches and two 1 inch holes is about 1.57 square inches. I will get myself to that level or perhaps 2 square inches and see how it goes.
