    Using wood chips is ok on a short cook but if it goes over 3 or 4 hours You can't beat a Pellet. Todd Johnson sells a 100% pellet that is great. No glues or binders. Lots of flavors and a Great guy to deal with. Look for his ad on the bottom of the Page (A- maze-n products)  Jted

    Beef ribs and brisket on a rainy Sunday

    Jack I have found you to be right about the sugar. Hunters set up is a MES smoker. White refined sugar burns at something over 325. At the MES temps you can use any type. Brown sugar has more Molasses than the others. Hunters food looks great.  Last Tuesday I was at a friends who used a...

    1st Smoke ever Pork Butt

    I try to smoke all my Boston Butts naked just for the Bark. Cutting the Butt in half will give you more bark but may not reduce your smoke time much. The reason is not the weight but the thickness of the meat. Mesquite is the strongest normally used. It is normally used during short duration...

    Which version of MES did I just buy?

    You are right. I also like to get Chicken as hot as I can. I usually place mine on the second or top grate in the right hand corner since it is the hottest.   Jted

    Newbie looking to buy a Smoker

    Josh, I don't know why anybody hasn't  responded to your post, maybe  the weekend had something to do with it. THIS IS STRICKELY MY OPINION and you know what they are worth but you asked. If you have not bought a smoker DON"T buy either one. Both are Gen 2 smokers and you don't need there...

    Which version of MES did I just buy?

    Hi, You can call the MB people they might be able to help. The bottom line is never rely on any Temp gauge or meat thermometer that is included with the smoker till you check it out with a known thermometer that you know is right. Then increase your box temps by that. You will have some over...

    Masterbuilt 30 inch digital smoker

    darRcksta, Can I jump in with a question or two. When one orders a 20070910 that has a rectangular controller pictured  is that the one you get or do they ship the round corner one. Are they using a file photo? Thanks to this forum and others as well as  word of mouth The standard gen 1 30 is...

    Masterbuilt 30 inch digital smoker

    Redrocker, It's hard to critique someones food from the Internet. and I would not do that . There are a lot of variables. The 20070910 will cook ribs very easily. Using the  3-2-1 method one is all but guaranteed great ribs the first time.. Do some research on the AMNPS smoke generator. After...

    A naked Butt Q view

    Hi,  Just do a forum search for it.  There are several finishing sauces listed but I like his. I must admit I changed it a little. I use Red pepper flakes and Apple juice since that is normal in the south.  Enjoy.  Jted
