I've been keeping my eye open and still hadn't seen one. I got a thing in the mail for a free trial membership at BJ's Wholesale and went to check it out today. They had them. Bad news is they only carry brisket flats and their rib prices aren't very good..
I can't see why not. I've cut babybacks in half to experiment with cooking them different times. Alot of people cut them in half to fit in some of the smaller smokers also.
That's more of what I was getting at. Didn't mean to come off like I kind of did..
It sounds like MasterBuilt has addressed some of those issues. I'm guessing the failure rate is still fairly small since there hasn't been a recall.
Out of curiosity, what kind of offer did they make you on a...
Is there any method that's 100% safe leaving unattended overnight?
Hopefully breakers and GFI outlets work if there's a problem..
Has anyone that's experienced the MES wiring issues popped a breaker or outlet building up to the failure?
The digital shows $199 at Lowes and it seems like I've seen it even cheaper. You can't go wrong with the analog at that price but you will need to use a thermometer and watch the temp/regulate it where the digital does it for you.
I've seen it being done, whether it was legal or not is another question. One of the things I'd worry about would be the ashes bouncing and blowing around and ending up all over the food. Maybe foil before moving? How far are you moving it? If it's a short distance a heat spike or drop might...

I'm working on an a way to use the A-Maze-N-Smoker externally with a MES. I'm looking for a metal box about 8x10x8. Not having any luck so far looking at project boxes, etc. I might end up looking for a metal shop and see if they can build it for me but has anyone seen anything that might do...
Do a search for "smoke daddy mes" and you'll find a few threads. Not a real big deal where you put it as long as the smoke flows.. The chip loader idea is cool.
I googled "upstate sc butcher" and found some stuff. Where exactly are you? There's an Anderson Butcher Shop I might have to stop at next time I drive by Easley.
I travel alot for work and that might be the highest prices I've ever seen. A good 30% more than some of my favorites that are worth their prices..
