    Adios Masterbuilt!

    No problem, it’s an easy mod that really makes the temp of the smoker more accurate than your oven

    Adios Masterbuilt!

    Once setup is complete it functions over cellular service, so unlimited I suppose lol If you go to the links at the bottom of that link I sent above you can view the instructions and setup info in .pdf

    MES 30 DIY PID Controller Help

    I picked up an old stainless control box from work, I would guess any metal but galvanized would be safe as the temps don’t get high inside the box

    Adios Masterbuilt!

    The one I use is very similar, but is a WiFi model with app. It is a bit more expensive, but I’m really glad I bought it. https://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=14_28&products_id=702

    Adios Masterbuilt!

    I’ve had masterbuilt electrics for over 6 years, very little to no issues. I have improved my most recent 140S, but had no issues with unit prior to modding it for temp control. It now holds within 1 degree, so the design isn’t flawed. Good luck with your traeger!

    MES 30 DIY PID Controller Help

    I should have mentioned, I use an amnps tray and mailbox mod. It is the WiFi Auber model WSD1500H-W. Yes modding the box was easy to do so it’s power on all the time through factory snap disc .

    MES 30 DIY PID Controller Help

    Although the Auber is expensive, it is a real game changer plug and play (almost)unit. Literally holds within 1 degree once its set up. This is a screenshot from the Auber app on a turkey breast I smoked a couple days ago. It’s what the masterbuilt needed from the factory.

    My mes 140s setup

    Looks good, I considered a similar box but I was concerned there wouldn’t be sufficient airflow to the pellets with the doors closed. Have you run it successfully with the doors closed?

    PID sale?

    I have an extra one of those units in a project box I’d let go for $50 shipped if anyone is interested

    MES30 with mailbox mod flames up.

    I averaged 8 hours over the last 12 cooks with the pellets I use. I don’t think you are far off of normal imo.

    PID sale?

    Furthermore, I would say this has converted my $250 smoker into an $800 smoker imho.

    PID sale?

    I have the WiFi model from Auber, zero regrets. My smoker tuned with that pid cooks faster and more evenly.

    Auber WS-1510H-W first impressions

    I certainly agree, it is quite a convoluted process manually.

    Auber WS-1510H-W first impressions

    No problem. This is all from the Auber app, and to be honest, without it I wouldn’t have bought this model.

    Auber WS-1510H-W first impressions

    This was a single step cook to 160F. If I would have used a step 2 it would have been 100F for 4 hours just to keep it warm. The parameter page up above was a prior cook

    Auber WS-1510H-W first impressions

    While a simple cook, this turkey breast was quick and easy and the Auber did not disappoint

    Another Crazy But Delicious Creation: Stewed Pork (W/ Pics)

    Good call! I did one very similar but I cubed and smoked it for about 3 hours prior to crockpot and used all the ingredients you have minus coriander and cumin, added hand ground cayenne and a bit of chipotle seasoning. It was fantastic!

    Masterbuilt MES 145 S Smoker

    I dont see any good photos of the inside, but it looks identical to the 140S , but has the added legs. I added the legs to my 140S , and it works well for me, but i modified mine. Mailbox type mod and WiFi Auber pid. I love it though!

    Temp on a MES30

    Something sounds off about this, like the box temp. I have owned 3 mes30 and an mes40 and not a single one was within 15 degrees of actual temp. With that said, a 3 lb. piece of meat shouldn’t take anywhere near that long. Is your meat thermometer calibrated accurately?
