    5 and 1/2 pound pork shoulder on Electric Smoker: How long?

    If there's extra room just pack a few towels around it. Mine were foiled, I pulled them out of the smoker and wrapped with another 2 layers of foil, then wrapped in 1 towel with other towels towels taking up the empty space.

    More smoke in the meat...

    I noticed going from fridge to smoker worked for me, thanks to tbrtt1's suggestion. Tell your wife you're gonna go buy a Plymouth roadrunner if you can't get the smoker!

    Cleaning a WSM with a sticky lid

    I use brakleen from the auto parts store. People think I'm nuts, but it really works and evaporates very fast. I turn up the heat afterwords, and never had a problem. It will take paint off though..

    Questions from a first time smoker and owner of MES 30"

    The shoulder comes in 2 parts if you want, the picnic and Boston butt. The picnic still has skin on it and doesn't come out as good as the butt in my opinion.i cooked them on the grates for the first 7 hours with no pan underneath, as my smoker only has 2 racks. It really doesn't start to drip...

    Questions from a first time smoker and owner of MES 30"

    I did mine on my deck. It's a master forge stand up. No heat from the bottom to speak of. I put a pig mat (used in mechanic and machine shops to soak up oil) under where the door opens and under the grease cup just in case.

    Questions from a first time smoker and owner of MES 30"

    Lat time I did two Boston butts, I started at 5pm, kept adding wood for smoke for 7 hrs, foiled them and went to sleep. Woke up at 6 and they still had a little while to go. Temp was 230 deg. Overnight, used a propane smoker. I figured after 7 hrs the meat wasn't gonna take much more smoke in...
