    Sounds like you have that down. I have tried pointing a fan on low and pointing it at my hopper to just increase the airflow to keep chips going but I have never really burned well or just don't burn at at all.  Having read about the AMNTS I think I might just go this route! Looks like you were...

    Thanks for sharing your experience.  That's the toss up right now... I don't want to fuss with something else which doesn't work right or produces too much smoke and I have to yank it well before I am done on my meat. I don't like tending my MES ever 20-40 minuttes but maybe that's a better...

    Thanks! I look forward to posting once it's much cooler outside.   I am sure if my better half loved smoked eats as much as I did she'd want me 'working' on this hobby more often.   I noticed in the picture below your post you have the AMZNTS  in your MES.  I have read a lot about these and...

    That's fantastic!  I was going to look into a smaller WSM as a portable option for weekend camping trips but I will check out this site as mentioned. Converting the SJ sound's like a much easier and less expensive option, thanks for the tip.

    Hello my name is Dave, I live in the valley of the sun and lurked on this site for awhile.  Anytime I want info on smoking I usually find that my bookmarks/google searches are leading me back to this site.  After my last (fifth time) of smoking meat this summer I figured I would join the...
