    Vegan houseguest - can’t let him starve...

    Of course there are exceptions to those rules. I'm not really talking about brisket (that's kind of an extreme example of meat not being easy) and vegetables as side dishes. Making an interesting, flavorful and nuanced main dish without any meat that everyone would want to eat, to me at least...

    Vegan houseguest - can’t let him starve...

    I second the cauliflower idea, it's great smoked, and rubbed with a little olive oil and S&P. Also, I like to make smoked collared greens. Just smoke them for about 20-30 minutes on low temp, then cut them up and cook them down with some olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, red chili...

    Excellent! I just happen to have some gochujang sitting in my fridge that never gets used. Thanks!

    All that looks amazing. I'd be very interested in the recipe on those wings and I would absolutely subscribe to your newsletter.

    Masterbuilt XL Propane - Mailbox Mod - Heavy QView - Need Some Help!

    Hi, thanks for linking to this in the other post. Do you have any vents for airflow on top/back besides the small vents that were then when you purchased it? Looking through that other thread about mods to this smoker, I noticed a lot of people fixed airflow issues by installing a small 2-3"...

    Masterbuild XL Mods - Post your mods here!

    Hi all, Reviving a slightly older thread. I have a 30" MES Analog but thinking about purchasing the XL Propane. I did the mailbox mod on my MES, using the Amaz-n tube smoker and/or the other amaz-n pellet/dust smoker. It all works great. Has anyone done the mailbox mod on the propane smoker...

    Advice needed - good wood for hot wings...

    Thanks all, very helpful. I love hickory and mesquite but they seem to have more of their own unique flavor which might not mix well with heavily sauced chicken. I'll definitely try some pecan, cherry and peach. I'll look out for that JD stuff too. Maybe a bit more experimentation is in order!

    Advice needed - good wood for hot wings...

    I've spent a lot of time in the past experimenting with different wood and sauces etc and I've had some really good results. This year I'm looking for a bit of consistency. I'm looking into making wings for a little pop-up at a friend's bar and I need to get my act together. Basically, I'm...

    Temp issues with MES 30 Analog

    Thanks all. Great suggestions. I'll definitely clean up my temp sensor on the heating unit. I don't believe I've had an issue with the cord getting warm, I've used it since I first bought the MES and have never noticed it getting warm. As for the GFCI, it's never tripped, I was just wondering...

    Temp issues with MES 30 Analog

    Thanks again. So I can most likely assume this is a power issue and not a fault of the heating unit on the MES then.

    Temp issues with MES 30 Analog

    Thanks for the reply. 1. I have confirmed temps with a second, tested thermometer I keep inside the MES, sorry forgot to add that. 2. I have no idea what size breaker. I live in a 6-unit apartment building and it's not easy to access the breakers. The times that I have, they're mislabeled (my...

    Temp issues with MES 30 Analog

    Hi all, I've been searching this subforum and found some great info but thought I'd start a new thread cause I didn't find my exact issue. I've had an MES 30 Analog Model 20070210 for about 2 years now. The first year or so I had no issues with my temps. This year, I can't seem to get it up...

    First pork shoulder smoke of the season

    Decided to do two smaller picnic shoulders and make some sauce this weekend. Got my brand new tube smoker and wanted to see what would happen if I used both the AMNPS and the tube smoker together to get more smoke. I had some temp issues in my MES30, couldn't quite get up to where I wanted it...
