    No Smoke Flavor

    You may have answered this and I missed it. I saw what you said about not adding liquid, but aside from weaker strength pellets that I used (compared to hickory), could the liquid that I had in there affect smoke absorption?

    Do you use any liquid in your water pan? What temp do you smoke at? Where do you put your amnps?

    No Smoke Flavor

    I’ve seen that Todd mentioned not putting any liquid in the water pan as the inside of the smoker will become a sauna. I had a bunch of apple juice in a foil pan at the top of my smoker, and again had zero smoke flavor on my meat. Can the liquid affect smoke absorption into the meat?

    No Smoke Flavor

    I was using the Pitmasters Choice pellets that came with the tray. Unfortunately my guests that ate with me couldn’t taste any smoke either, just the rub that was in the bark.

    MES Lack Of Smoke

    My trial run of just chips yesterday (with the chip tray resting right on the heating element) seemed to work, but it is a pain adding new wood chips every 45 minutes. Definitely wont work for an overnight smoke

    Awesome, thanks. I'm assuming your AMNPS tray wont stay lit do to lack of air in the MES?

    MES Lack Of Smoke

    Thanks. Something else I am trying is I removed the metal frame that the chip tray rests on, which allows the chip tray to rest directly on the heating element. I'm doing a dry run (with the vent wide open) and only wood chips (no meat). So far I've been able to get smoke for the last 1.5 hrs...
