    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    I made 10 pounds of jerky, this was only my second time using the MES 44 smoker, Jerky came out tasteless didn't have much flavor, I couldn't keep the temp down low enough so the meat taste like it was more cooked then dried, I hoping that was the problem since I make good jerky in a dehydrator...

    I just did my first smoke, 5 pounds of cooper sharp, 2-1/2 pounds of horseradish and 2-1/2 pounds of black pepper, It is pretty strong, The only wood I had was mesquite and I smoked it for about 5 hours since it looked like it wasn't getting much smoke but it must have been getting plenty, Now...

    There is a hole in the bottom under the burners, But doesn't look like enough room to put anything there, There is enough room to put something on the top plate above the burners if that is where you would put the Amazen Pellet Tube Smoker, The chip pan is thin metal but doesn't look that cheap...

    That is the year, I know I'm getting too old to learn new tricks, LOL! I'm not sure about the hole but will look, I know there is 2 burners at the bottom, I will probably order the Amazen Pellet Tube Smoker 12" or the expanding 12" to 18" tube then just lay it on the bottom rack or hang it from...

    Master Built Xl 44 glass door dual burners.

    Thanks, But I don't need the brackets, Can just use the one's that are on it now, I have 5 racks now so it would cost me $80 to replace them, I think I will take your advise and look into the mesh screens, What about screens you use on a screen door? Are wouldn't that be food save.

    Master Built Xl 44 glass door dual burners.

     I called OLP customer service and they are currently out of stock on the jerky racks an won't be in for about 30 days, But they are $16 a piece which is high in my opinion, Seems like the frogmats are the way to go but I wanted to get metal racks which should last a life time hopefully.
