    MES with Broiler

    I was initially disappointed with the amount of smoke I got from my MES. I added the amaz-n-smoking tube after recommendation from my smoking forum buds, and I've been quite happy with it. Temperature swings dont bother me much, but I've never independently measured it. The tube changed my MB...

    Wagyu Brisket from the MES40

    I bet that will be FANTASTIC! A couple years ago, I had some Wagyu steak that was so tender it didn't even need a knife to cut. It was a pretty thin cut, actually. I never even considered there was such a thing as Wagyu brisket. You're going to send us all some when its finished, right?

    Should I add fat to my ground brisket?

    I've always thought brisket was pretty fatty to begin with, but I guess if you trim it down really well, it probably isn't that fatty. To me, the optimal lean/fat ratio is 80/20. Higher lean is not as juicy, to me, more fat than 20 is just too much (and creates a fireball in the grill). Does...

    How to clean tube

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I don't recall if my tube (actually oval shapped) is perforated on the closed end, but I did notice some of the perforations along the side had clogged. I ran it through the dishwasher and it took care of most of it. I like the idea of soaking in the sink, and...

    How to clean tube

    I'm a new user of the Amaz-N smoking tube, and I was curious how everyone keeps theirs clean. Got mine in October and have quite a few uses on it, so I just ran it through the dishwasher. Came pretty clean, but still somewhat discolored. What do the rest of you do (if anything). Thx

    Another “FREE” Double Smoked Ham

    That is absolutely beautiful! I've never done a spiral ham (have done some small hams), but I'm definitely going to have to try one. I never thought of using a tray up top to drip over the meat either. One thing I was curious about, why did you put the ham on a rack in a pan as opposed to...

    Funny Beef Doneness pic

    Sadly there are people that intentionally cook until it is well done (#5 or shoe leather as me and wife call it) THEN add ketchup to it. I guess the only way to eat shoe leather is with ketchup. Even worse are those that put ketchup on a #1, 2, or 3 steak.

    BREAKFAST IN EAST TEXAS

    I live just up the road from you (between Longview & Tyler). Had dinner a couple nights ago in your neighborhood (Chuy's Tyler). Its a small world isn't it?

    Better Smoke in MES

    Some time ago, Wolfman was asking how to get more smoke from his MES in this thread: https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/adding-cold-smoker-to-mes-due-to-lack-of-smoke.291747/ I had been struggling with same delima, so I jumped on his thread, and this new thread is a follow up. I...

    BREAKFAST IN EAST TEXAS

    Looks really good. Was this made at home or from a restaraunt? I'm in E. TX and might have to give a try sometime.

    Adding cold smoker to MES due to lack of smoke?

    Thanks. I think I'll try ribs with the tube this weekend and I'll let you all know how it goes.

    Adding cold smoker to MES due to lack of smoke?

    Actually ordered both. I'm one of those individuals that likes to learn about something before buying, and since I didn't know anything about the ANMPS, I wanted to research it first. I've been looking for the other thing (or parts) for a couple months, so I jumped on it as soon as I saw it...

    Adding cold smoker to MES due to lack of smoke?

    I don't have anything against the Amaze-N Smoker tubes/trays. I simply didn't know anything about them until I joined this forum. It looks good, and I'll be trying it sometime soon. In the meantime, I have ordered the slow smoker made by masterbuilt. Thanks, Wolfman, for letting me know it...

    Adding cold smoker to MES due to lack of smoke?

    Well, I actually found the Masterbuilt cold smoker attachment for sale again, but it is called a slow smoker now. I think I'll get one on order.

    Adding cold smoker to MES due to lack of smoke?

    I really liked the MES cold smoker attachment. I used the cold smoker attachment to generate my smoke and used the heating element in the MES30 to cook. Only problem is the cold smoker kept breaking, and they aren't for sale any more (unless masterbuilt has something new). I am very...

    Intro from E. TX

    I will definitely check out the amnps if I dont get the cold smoker going again. Do most use it with the mailbox mod, or is it good enough to go in the mes?

    Intro from E. TX

    Hello everyone. I have been into smoking for many years, but in the last 8-ish years, it has become somewhat of a hobby of mine. I initially started in the late 1990's with a Brinkman charcoal smoker (shaped like vertical tube). Although I enjoyed what was smoked with it, I found I had to...
