    Problem keeping AMNPS lit in MES 30"

    I've run into that same problem.  I'm in Western NY where it's been way humid most of the summer.  Last week I put one row of pellets in the microwave for 1 min.  That seemed to do too much.  I got nothing but heavy white smoke from them after that.  Yesterday I figured I'd just put them in the...

    New Pellets for AMNPS

    I'm afraid my appetite beat out my picture taking this time.  How's this pellet mix for beef, or do you have another recommendation?

    New Pellets for AMNPS

    Just have to say that I tried Todd's new "Perfect Mix" pellets with Hickory, Cherry, Maple, & Apple, and WOW!  I've never noticed a huge difference in using different woods before.  But right from the start this smelled incredible.  The pork butt I'm cooking still has a few hours to go, but I...

    Tribute to RonP

    I never joined the forum until after Ron had passed, but it was Ron's old posts that sold me on this forum & convinced me to get my MES.  Even after he's gone, he's still passing on his wisdom.

    Hello from New MES 40 owner!

    I do boneless skinless breasts right on the rack after an hour of brining & a quick rub.  I smoke them to 145 internal temp, then finish them on the grill for a few minutes.  I usually do 10lbs at a time & eat them all week long.

    MES 40 Temp Problems

    Nothing yet on mine.  Still waiting to hear back from Darryl the MB tech guy.  He's been out of the country for a bit.  Sounds like I may be in the same boat as you.  I've used 2 control panels so far with the same crazy results.

    MES and AMAZEN

    I think the simplest explanation is that once you get the AMNPS lit, it smolders sort of like incense, and puts out perfect thin blue smoke for more than 10 hours.  I won't smoke without one.

    Masterbuilt smoker vent position?

    Thin blue smoke.  That's the kind you want.  White billowing smoke ruins the flavor and creates creosote.

    Mounting external Temp Gauge on your MES

    Some, like the Maverick ET-732, have 2 probes.  One for the meat, and one for the bbq/smoker temp.

    A Freebie

    I'm definitely interested in taking that off your hands.  I'm on the road for a couple of weeks, but could pick it up after that if it's not already taken.

    MES just doesn't match the old ECB

    I use an AMNPS in my mes 40.  Puts out great smoke.  If I want more smoke for something, I just light both ends.  I've actually made a couple of things too smokey in my experimentation.

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Sounds like you need to contact MB customer service for the free retro kit.  That should get your machine smoking right.   ... or just get an AMNPS and not worry about it.

    How's everyone's ET-732 working/holding up?

    Bear - Haven't tried that yet.  I'll give it a shot.  Thanks!

    How's everyone's ET-732 working/holding up?

    Overall I've loved mine.  Did have the BBQ probe take a crap after about 4 weeks.  Started bouncing between LLL, 60º, & 250º.  Called customer service and they said to send it in & they'd replace it.  Just haven't gotten around to sending it in yet.  One odd thing is that with new batteries it...

    MBTechguy is out of the country right now.  I think he said he'd be back in early Aug. 
Great deal on LEM Grinders!
