Good afternoon Fellow smoke hounds,
Per the norm I smoked 2 turkeys for Christmas. These turkeys were put in brine Dec 20th. They were in the brine for 4 days, they were 16# fresh turkeys. I used my standard honey brine;
Honey brine
1 1/2 Gal filtered water
3/4 cup (6 oz) kosher salt
32 oz...
While I do not have a MES 40 electric smoker, the same should apply.
Many moons ago when I first started smoking, I asked my local health inspector, this very question. Her response was; as long as you do not leave drip pans, or dirty racks in the smoker and allow mold to grow, no deep cleaning...
Thanks guys,
Yes the cheese made a few folks very happy. One of the recipients couldn't wait to try it. He went for the crackers and said lets slice this bad boy up. It still had a lot of smoke flavor not as much as out of smoker, so they should be good to go on New-Years Eve. I told every one...

I started putting my pellets in the oven at 200 for 30 min before I use them. Since I started doing this I have had zero problems, they light faster and stay lit.
Here's an Idea for ya and will not cost ya an arm and leg either.
I cold smoke in my Master Forge I bought from Lowes. they run 150-175 range depending on if you catch them on sale...
