    Question on turkey cook temp in MES 30

    So I've got a 20 lb turkey I want to smoke for Thanksgiving. That said, how should I cook such a big bird in my MES 30 considering my cook temp only goes up to 275 degrees? Obviously, I don't want to mess around with the "Danger Zone". Any and all help would be appreciarted. Thanks!

    Problem keeping AMNPS lit in MES 30"

    First Fattie w/Q-View

    Well I went with a pepperoni and mushroom pizza fattie. I read the tutorial and still found it to be a PITA to roll the fattie.

    Fattie Cook Time

    Thanks, Al. I'm also curious at what temp should I smoke this fattie and about how long does it take to smoke? Ball park figures are fine, I just want to have this baby ready for dinner tonight. Thanks!

    Fattie Cook Time

    I'm going to make a fattie tomorrow in my MES 30". What temp do I want to cook to on this fattie? It will be ground chicken/turkey with a buffalo style sauce and innards. I took tomorrow off to start a long weekend of smoking!
