    First smoke on MES 30 -- Smoked Flank Steak

    Thanks Smokin, I agree 100% about the thermometer so I'm using my Maverick for both chamber and meat temps. The really confusing thing to me about their temp sensors is that the differences don't appear to be consistent. Like yours, most of the time it appears to be 20-25* cooler than the...

    First smoke on MES 30 -- Smoked Flank Steak

    BTW, I'm not doing well this morning. I have no idea why I titled this as a Smoked Flank Steak, I must have been looking at my smoking log and typed in the title from an earlier cook! LOL, I'm good at dumb! Scott

    First smoke on MES 30 -- Smoked Flank Steak

    After my old Perfect Flame smoker died at 4 AM on Labor Day and I ended up doing the brisket in a slow cooker (had to be cooked - tasted ok but texture is totally different) I went out and bought a MES 30 a couple weeks ago. After seasoning the smoker, I picked up a 3 lb London Broil (assume it...

    I've been looking around on the site. What is the right size for a MES 30 and how do you find the 20% discount? Sorry if I'm being dense, Scott

    First Smoke on my MES

    Thanks! I'm glad to hear I haven't lost my mind! I love the MES and its stability. I did have one other thing happen today. Right after I loaded the next cup of wood chips, I had a flash in the MES and an over pressure (baby explosion) that pushed the wood chip loader out a couple of inches...

    First Smoke on my MES

    Well, I did my first smoke on a new MES 30" with a window (end of season sale). I am learning about the MES and I don't know if others have the same issues. The good news is that the temp seems VERY stable, good smoke production, and easy to clean. My only concern is that I don't trust the...

    Labor Day - Smoked Brisket

    Thanks Woodman, I'll try that this morning. I did open and close the valve a number of times on both cylinders while I was trying to get it lit. Last time I used it was 3 weeks ago on a top sirloin (I have to catch up on some posting!). Talk about a failed smoke! I actually considered going to...

    Labor Day - Smoked Brisket

    Well, maybe not! When I tried to light my old Masterbuilt grill, the valve seems have failed and no fire at all!Cleaned the ports, changed cylinders, still nothing. Any ideas! Its a little early to go buy a new one. Crap!
