    First Smoke Ever! Chicken Quarters on new MES40

    Ok so 2 days ago my new MES40 Gen 2 arrived.  Yesterday my AMNPS and pellets arrived and seasoned the MES.  Today I just had to smoke something so had the wife pick up a pack of chicken quarters for my first smoke since they are hard to mess up and pretty cheap. Set MES to 275 and let preheat...

    Seasoning and mailbox question

    Yep I don't think she realizes yet that I need a slicer, scale, grinder, sausage stuffer, etc yet either lol   I have the ad always on my computer for a new LEM slicer so hopefully she gets the drift and one ends up under the tree in a few weeks :)

    Seasoning and mailbox question

    Yeah I decided to try it out before doing the mod.  I was just reading horror stories on here but then again problems always get posted and when it runs fine you hardly hear of it.  Last night I had the AMNPS running and it looked like it was going good for the short amount of time I had with...

    Seasoning and mailbox question

    Yeah Azbohunter I was thinking along the same lines so I just adjusted the time to add another 2 hours so it will be well seasoned now!  I filled 1.5 row of the AMNPS with some pellets, had a nice cherry going, and put it over the hole where the water pan sits on the Gen 2.  I pulled out the...

    Well when I arrived home today I had more packages awaiting, my AMNPS and some pellets finally arrived!  Setup my Mav 733 on the right side of 2nd rack and left side of third rack.  Now 1.5 hours later my MAV is reading 279 & 274.  My new MES40 Gen 2 is reading 275 so it seems to be fairly...

    Seasoning and mailbox question

    Already bought a Mav 733 and it arrived today with the MES :)  Only thing holding me up is the wood that is arriving with the AMNPS!  USPS tracking said the AMNPS was suppose to be here today or else I would have stopped at Fleet Farm and picked up some wood pellets on my way home to season it...

    Seasoning and mailbox question

    My new MES 40" Gen 2 arrived today.  My AMNPS should be here tomorrow.  I plan on putting on the mailbox MOD that I have seen on these forums.  Should I wait to season it until after I buy and install the mailbox MOD or do you guys think I should season it prior to MOD'n it up? Would like to...

    New guy from MN!

    Been reading these forums for the past couple hours because I got a deal on a smoker due to black friday (or should say black Thanksgiving lol).  I have been wanting a smoker for awhile and the wife finally gave me the OK.  The problem I have after reading the forums for the last couple hours is...
