    Think I'm ready to talk about it finally

    the top vents were wide open, there's two. and that's a great idea with the foil. I've done that with other smokers in the past. the mes is just so new to me.

    Think I'm ready to talk about it finally

    I could be horribly wrong, and maybe my pellets smoked way to fast. I was doing a shoulder, wings and a fresh kielbasa, it all was over smokey. When I opened it the fat in the water pan was smoking, again it could have been I had the unit at the highest heat.

    Think I'm ready to talk about it finally

    So it was super bowl Sunday and I attempted my first smoke in the MES 30 I bought off marketplace. There were some issues that I had that day that I finally want to bounce off everyone. Out of the gate I didn't know about the error code when I went to fire it up in extreme cold, that set the...

    Late to the party

    Wish the 3 bags of pellets and dust were on the house. Those I ordered. The two cans of spices are the gift. Which I am not upset about at all!!

    Late to the party

    Huge tips there. Thank you. And I am def gonna do the mailbox mod. That's the next step. The MES I picked up didn't have legs so I ordered those from masterbuilt. They are allegedly showing up today via FedEx, but I trust gas station sushi more than their shipping updates. Once the legs are on...

    Where do most of you get all your gear? Big box or small business??

    Thank you everyone for your responses. As an avid smoker, grilling, food lover and all around kitchen nerd I am curious. Personally I prefer to order directly from the little guy if I can, but unfortunately some times the big box vendors are a must.

    Where do most of you get all your gear? Big box or small business??

    Hi all, just curious how most of you get all your gear? Are you more apt to use a big box online retailer or go to a smaller local shop? And I am asking about everything from large purchases to just picking up some rubs or even chips or pellets? Would love to hear everyone's input. (with the...

    NorthEast Blizzard

    Othello is a great name! You pretty much described our newf with the color. He's gonna be 7 in the next few weeks. We get every "bear" joke everywhere we take him.

    NorthEast Blizzard

    According to the Newfoundland who just came from outside, the snow just started here in New Hampshire. The 175lb yard bear is my barometer for the weather around here. We are looking at up to 18" possibly with howling winds. Definitely a good Nor'easter gonna tear through.

    MES 30 steal off marketplace

    Was a $100. Probably could have gotten a better deal but didn't feel like spending my life bartering. The unit is barely used.

    Low key roast beef

    Took a cheap top round and rubbed it down over night with a fresh garlic rub. Blasted it in the oven. The 11 year old approved!! Gonna be sandwiches for the week with leftovers.

    MES 30 steal off marketplace

    That was my feel also. Picked up some pork shoulders today for .69 a lb. Seemed like a good way to run it up the flagpole to see what I was up against.

    MES 30 steal off marketplace

    Just picked up a 30” MES this weekend off marketplace. Still navigating the new waters and checking it out. Finally got it paired to my phone, realized that it has the broiler option. Found the “manual” on the inter webs. And after reading a lot of info on here, finally got around to ordering a...

    Whats everyone smoking this weekend?

    Looking to do some salmon, couple racks of ribs, a fresh ham hock I was given, along with making 4 batches of home made BBQ sauce. Feel like I may have to smoke some fresh kielbasa also. Big Sunday planned. Thankful for beer.....

    Steak And Sausage Extravaganza: An Epic Meal w/ Q-View

    Not sure what I personally love more about your post the food or the sentiment. I couldn't agree with you more about friends and food. My wife always knows when I'm starting to twitch and the need for feeding our friends hits me. Enjoy the Texas spring!!
