    Turkey..Turkey..Turkey

    Well don't think I got the reply quite right. Apologies to all. I am going to give this a go with a 10 lb Turkey. Any thoughts on how long it might take in the MES and Oven? Thanks Greg

    Pastrami. Be More Moister! Q View.

    My first Bacon. All three types BBB, CB and Belly (pic heavy)

    Hi BigDaveJr, Interested in how long/temp you ended up smoking your Belly Bacon. On my first go and not sure which way to go or how long with the smoke. Your bacon looks great! Mine comes out of a dry cure tomorrow so smoking in a couple days.

    I am new to smoking and just trying my first bacon. I am using a dry cure from the book by Michael Ruhlman and Brian Polcyn. But I am not quite sure at what temperature and how long to smoke and for. I have a MES 30 smoker with a letterbox type conversion so I can cold smoke If I want to. Now...

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Hinder, Don't give up yet. I went for a MES too and have struggled with smoke. I am still getting the hang of it. I feel like I am nearly there with the smoke. I have a little kettle BBQ instead of a mailbox. I'm sure you have read it before but the combination that ended up working for me...
