    Tri-tip amaze-n-pellet smoke in my Masterbuilt

    Holyfeld - I have pics up above. Since this is a meat I smoke 2x / month - I can give you all the pics you need! Im still trying other ways so I have options. Such as cooking it "normally", cooking as a brisket - crutching and high temps for IT. Each has its pros and cons, but so far I prefer...

    Smoking a Bottom Round

    OK, I went to the store to look for something to smoke - ANYTHING ! I came across this piece of meat with 2 $4 off coupons - total is $8 so you don't need the calculator.

    Tips - Dry your pellets. I put mine in the smoker while its warming up. Then I light it, get it going for a minute, blow it out and put back in smoker. I get 2 hrs per "lane" on the AMPNS.

    new MES30, going to smoke a pork butt for the first time tomorrow

    I use a torch to get it lit. Also, I heat my smoker at 275 for 1 hr, so I put the pellets in there to dry. When Im ready they get lit quick and away I go at 225 for anything that goes in there.

    yes - also - vents w little less than wide open - you need smoke flow. do not open and close the smoker to spray it - they will be fine - set the heat / time and forget about it - you wont see the ribs till done.

    new MES30, going to smoke a pork butt for the first time tomorrow

    I have the signature series MES - and I love it. For me - babybacks aren't the best choice for ribs - they got popular cause of a jingle -  not the flavor. BUT......... Use the 3-2-1 method at 225. I preheat also at 270 for one hr  then turn down to 225 while I have door open. I put apple...

    Loins are hard to cook - keep an eye on it so it doesn't dry out
