Got my new MES a few weeks back and made some delicious chicken thighs for my first smoke so decided it was time to try a butt. I've done a bunch of these with my old red Brinkmann and times ranged from a high of 19 hours to a low of 8 hours. Results were always great but the times were all over...
I treat mine almost like they were ribs. I used to do 3-2-1 but I've since settled on 3-3 at about 225*. I rub them down then smoke for three hours at 225. At the three hour mark I wrap them in foil with some rub, brown sugar, apple juice, and a little butter and then go another 2-3 hours. The...
Thanks for all the comments and advice guys! I have a birthday coming up and an AMNPS has already been requested but I'll have to without until then. I'm thinking (hoping) that will be the real game changer. Everybody seems to love it so I'm definitely looking forward to getting one.
Temp probe said it was time to eat so I just ate! Oh man that was some of the tastiest juiciest chicken I've ever had. Quite a bit different in taste from the old smoker which I think is the result of much better temperature and smoke management. Except for a couple of times I had that wonderful...
I finally found my smaller aluminum pans so I took out the jumbo I had in there (only thing I could find earlier)and am already gaining temp so that was the problem. I gave up on even trying to cook the skin with the old smoker and started peeling it before I smoked the chicken. The final straw...
After 3 years of fighting with a red Brinkmann bullet I recently upgraded to a 30" Masterbuilt digital. Made some great food with the Brinkmann but also had my share of troubles (particularly when it was cold out). Read a lot of forums on this site and decided to go with the MES and found this...
On paper it doesn't sound like it would be that good but the SoFlaQuer sauce is outstanding. Seems to be best if you make it a day or two ahead of time to let it blend and and mellow a bit but the flavor is just sublime if you use the right amount. Too much can be a bit strong but if you hit it...
Shout out from West Seneca! Grew up in Lancaster/Depew but have been in West Seneca for close to 20 years now. I'm with you on the addiction thing twospoiled, I swear smoking meat is as addicting as smoking cigarettes. As soon as I finish something I just want to fire up the smoker again.
