Burger Bacon Shots !!
Well, I only opened the smoker once to put in the corn. I believe I just cooked the burgers too long.... 2hrs @ 270 or so. They actually reheated pretty well today and were juicier than fresh off the smoker. A learning experience - but I believe a smaller burger and shorter time would be the... -
Burger Bacon Shots !!
Well, I had mixed results. The corn came out good. The burgers had great flavor and were awesome looking - but they came out on the dry side. I believe I cooked them too hot - or too long - or too hot and long. ; P. I think I'll try smaller ones next time (these were 8 oz'ers) and adjust the... -
Burger Bacon Shots !!
Yeah, addiction for sure. Went to the store for some ground chuck and came home with it in addition to some baby backs and pork shoulder country style ribs! -
Burger Bacon Shots !!
This inspired me! Putting some in the smoker in 15 minutes. Ground chuck with sauteed onion and green pepper, chunks o' pepper jack and cheddar with a covering of mozzarella and cheddar. Actually they're "beer can" versions. Smoking at 270° for 2 hours with cob corn going in for 1 1/2 hours of... -
First Smoke 40" MES - BBs and Corn on the Cob
Thanks Tumbleweed. I went ahead and rolled with the MES set at 240. Cooked for 4 hours with the corn in the last 2 hours. At 4 hours the toothpick slid right on in. I slathered 1/2 the ribs with sauce to compare with the "dry" ones and smoked another 20 minutes. Both were great but leaned more... -

New MES40 Sportsman Bluetooth review
Larry - yeah that's the one I got. I'm impressed with the quality. I have a rack of baby backs going right now and some corn on the cob. As of now I'm relying on the MES itself for the temps. The firebox temp and meat probe in it's holder are reading almost exactly the same so I'm pretty...- krooz

First Smoke 40" MES - BBs and Corn on the Cob
Seasoned my new MES 40BT today. Don't have any of the new gadgets yet (Maverick / AMZNPS) so going at it tomorrow bare bones - relying on the MES itself. Planning to smoke a rack of BBs unfoiled on 2nd rack for 4-5 hours at 240° (thinking that temp should allow for any swings). Will rub down... -

New MES40 Sportsman Bluetooth review
Yeah, can't wait to use it! I appreciate the ideas link. I've typically only smoked butts but want to expand to other meats/cuts. (Tried a tri tip once but it didn't come out so great). Let the adventure begin!- krooz

New MES40 Sportsman Bluetooth review
Well, I missed the first sale but caught the latest at 349.99 and had enough Cabela bucks to buy the 40" 2.5 BT. Arrived today (yay!) and plan to assemble and season on Friday. So, looking for tips/recommendation from other purchasers as to what to plan for..... 1) Foil drip pan for ease of...- krooz

Thanks for the replies. I don't live near a Cabela's so I have to trust that it is what they say... it sounds like the right one then. Can't wait to step things up a notch!- krooz

New MES40 Sportsman Bluetooth review
Curious as to any updates on how y'all are liking this smoker? I was all set to get a MES30 until I went to Lowes to see one in person and it seemed a bit small. Since this will be my second smoker I feel I need to upgrade and go bigger to give me more options. The link I pasted is for one I'm...- krooz

Butts - Max Cooler Time?....update.....
Well, ended up leaving the butts in the cooler almost 5 hrs - only lost 10 degrees or so during that time period. Piping hot, juicy and delicious! Sorry - no Qview of the pulled platter. Supper was a big hit. Used the leftovers last night to makes carnitas which were great as well. Also, made... -
Butts - Max Cooler Time?....update.....
Well, I pulled it off of the smoker - meat temp = 195. Had to remove the thermometer to get the meat off of the rack. Reinserted it and it read 178 - don't believe that's right. Anyway, wrapped in foil in towels in the cooler for 2 hrs now... reading 175°. I believe she'll be fine until 5 or 6... -
Butts - Max Cooler Time?....update.....
Thanks a lot folks. I opened the cooler and laid down some towels in the bed of the truck - they're all hot now just being in the sun. Butt is holding steady at 195°, smoker is at 225° (I wonder why it's not hotter -usually I have to throttle it with the door to hold it nicely below 250?)...
