Rinsed and dried for 2 hours. smoked from 125 to 145 degrees over a 3.5 hour span. And yes, this is Salmon which the...

    Auber PID alternatives

    deora68, unless you are into making your own controller, I would not consider anything but the AUBER. The amount of work we all put into smoking meats, deserves the best. Auber is such an easy plug n play.

    Your attachment is not working for me. Do you have any pics of the fish smoked?

    Locking up an MES

    I assume your smoker has legs attached? Might drill a small hole in one of the legs and run a cable through it. Wrap the cable around a porch post with a lock. Yes, a shame one has to do this but it's reality.

    MES 30 won't heat

    Many of us have learned how to eliminate the entire circuitry of the smoker by using an Auber PID controller. I attached a power cord directly to my MES40 heating element. The other end of the cord is plugged into the Auber controller. Never looked back.

    MES w/ mailbox vs Recteq

    Spohnat, You can't run your recteq under 200 degrees? Since my MES is dedicated to fish, I would have a big problem if I couldn't run under 200. My average temp ran is 150.

    Here's my MES/Auber/Mailbox combo.

    Fed up!

    Here’s my mailbox mod with a Auber PID controller on top. I added a few holes in the mailbox so the AMNPS has no problem staying lit. You can see that the mailbox is elevated slightly for good air flow thru the holes in the mailbox bottom.

    Fed up!

    Yes to what Gary just said.

    Fed up!

    If you have a MES40, just add a mailbox. Once established, add a AMNPS pellet grate to the mailbox. Some holes in the mailbox and it's door might be needed. Have never needed to heat the pellets for more than 5-10 minutes. So very simple.

    MES w/ mailbox vs Recteq

    Yup! to the 1510. What's nice about having this controller is that you can easily use it on your other electric smokers. My old big chief smoker gets Auber assistance, once in awhile.

    MES w/ mailbox vs Recteq

    Consider keeping your MES and connect it to an Auber PID controller. You'll never regret it. I rewired my MES40 by connecting a power cord directly to the element. This power cord plugs directly to the PID controller. And yes for keeping the mailbox. Oh and which MES do you have? 30 or...

    Does smoke exhaust routing need to come out vertical?

    "but officer, try one of our ribs before you write that ticket. Yummmm"

    Does smoke exhaust routing need to come out vertical?

    Don't forget room required on the left side required for accessing the briquettes. Also putting a cooler/fridge/freezer next to the smoker? inside such a tight area?

    Does smoke exhaust routing need to come out vertical?

    Maybe there's a reason why...... That's your opinion. Not sure what you mean. How can the smoke be below the smoker. It is typically created inside the smoker at the bottom and is vented out the top. At least the Bradley P10 does.

    Does smoke exhaust routing need to come out vertical?

    Putting aside all the safety issues, is the bay wide enough for you to access the left side to load and maintain the briquettes ?
