    Wild hog in the MES

    Which smoker to keep?

    I have an Auber PID controller so temp is good. I have to say the stainless looks sweet but I hate the window.

    Which smoker to keep?

    Thanks to Masterbuilt customer service, I received a brand new MES 40 due to some issues with my MES 40B. I was able to exchange the MES 40B at Academy and Masterbuilt sent me another one. Woo-hoo! So I can only keep one. Which one should I keep?
