    Masterbuilt 20070112 Cold Smoking Kit for Masterbuilt Digital Smokers?

    I went to their site and the unit is no longer there.  I even did a search of my own and I saw the unit listed in the listings, but when I went to click on it I kept getting an error page.

    AMNPS vs MES Cold Smoke attachment

    Goliath?  Does the unit only do wood chips?  Or can you put pellets in it as well?  And I gather from whats been said that it works with hot smokes as well as cold smokes, right?

    Masterbuilt 20070112 Cold Smoking Kit for Masterbuilt Digital Smokers?

    Just found this on Amazon and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience using one of these for either cold or hot smoking? I would love to have 6 hours of consistent and constant smoke as this unit implies. YES, I have the A-maze-n 5X6 smoking unit, but no matter what I do I can't get...

    Brisket Packer Prep - how to cut it up

    Hi everyone, I have been looking to step up my smoking game to include brisket. The last beef product I tried was a roast, and basically all I ended up with was a BBQ flavored cement cube by the time I was done. Because I am on a fixed income I have to now be far more careful in buying and...

    I can't keep my pellets lit

    Ooooo,, I like that.  I can do that with a hair drier too! Great idea!

    I can't keep my pellets lit

    I think I may just try the microwave thing the next go around before putting them into the AMNPS. Our oven in the house doesn't work.  Someday I will get a chance to remodel this house.  I hope....

    I can't keep my pellets lit

    I live in Kansas, near Kansas City the home of GREAT BBQ!  The humidity has bee a bit much here lately, so I am pretty convinced its wet pellets.

    I can't keep my pellets lit

    I did all that, and still had dead pellets. At this point I gotta believe its wet pellets. But as soon as the weather breaks (really cold and rainy here), I will be trying some more ribs for my dad.

    I can't keep my pellets lit

    Yep. tried all that.  Cept for the juice jugs. I cant help but think these pellets have already drawn up moisture and need to be dried,,, like in a kiln if I had one. Any thoughts about how to draw the moisture out of them??

    I can't keep my pellets lit

    I have the latest version of the MES 40 and I also purchased a AMNPS 5x8 to go with it because I didn't really want to sit around and fill the chip loader with chips every 20-30 minutes to get a deep smoked flavor that I like best. As the title of this thread suggests,, I can't seem to keep my...

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Agreed, the MES is sealed very tightly.  I didn't have have the time to explore you placement and settings while it was 250 degrees but the next time I smoke (next week), I am going to try a few of your suggestions. I am just curious,, has anyone ever designed a pellet/chip feeder the works...
