    Temps in new 40" MES vs Maverick ET-732

    Should I be worried that my temp probe is saying that the bird is at 126 degrees in less than an hour and a half?

    This is NOT Thin Blue Smoke....

    Really?  I thought the added oxygen created by opening it was the reason for the fire last night.  OK, since you're a moderator, I will open it all the way. Thanks for the replies and help.  Happy Thanksgiving!!!

    Temps in new 40" MES vs Maverick ET-732

    Thank you for the help.  I added a small amount of soaked chips, and in 5 minutes or so, it was as if they had caught on fire.  It's mellowing out now, but I am fearful the bird will taste like creosote.  We'll see. Thanks again, and Happy Thanksgiving.

    This is NOT Thin Blue Smoke....

    Actually, it was closed all the way, just like it was last night.  When I opened it, that's when I had a fire flare up.  I did not soak the chips last night, or the first batch this morning.  After it went crazy, I added water to the chip pan in an effort to keep the chips from catching fire...

    Temps in new 40" MES vs Maverick ET-732

    Thank you so much.  I need to get fuel for my torch and use the AMNPS, that's for sure.  I can see how this could turn into an expensive experiment getting everything figured out. Mine is the 1200, too; and according to my thermometer, it's about 75 out now, so the unit shouldn't have to labor...

    This is NOT Thin Blue Smoke....

    I have an aversion to hearing my own voice, so this video has no speaking, but this is the "smoke" my bird is getting right now, and it scares me that is going to ruin the bird.  Help!!!

    Temps in new 40" MES vs Maverick ET-732

    Well, this appears to be turning into a colossal failure.  I got the MES to temperature, stuck the Maverick probe into the bird and put it in the smoker.  Set the temp down to 240, timer for 8+ hours, put in some apple chips into the feeder, and closed it up.  It was like the thing caught on...

    Thank you for the quick replies.  I also purchased the AMNPS, but I don't have the blow torch (the fuel, since I got the torch with the kit), to light it. :)

    Temps in new 40" MES vs Maverick ET-732

    Hi there.  I realize this is the Poultry section, so I am posting this here because it will probably be the most watched today, and because I am about to smoke a turkey.    My main question has to do with the temp differences I am seeing.  I ordered the new Masterbuilt 40" on Tuesday and it was...

    AMNPS A-MAZE-N-PELLET-SMOKER 5X8 First Look

    Thanks for the reply.  I've never thought about smoking salt, but that sounds like a great idea.  Thanks again. :)

    Two questions. 1:  What's a GOSM?  I know it's a smoker, but what kind?  2:  What was in the bowl inside the smoker?
