    The best way I found was to add some butter to a pan, put in your finishing sauce r your BBQ sauce and put in the amount of pulled pork you want. Simmer until hot and tender. Oh by the way we generally eat pulled pork fr a week straight when I smoke!

    30 MES smoker element crapped out

    OK, Took the bottom access panel off and this is what I found. No burned leads. Everything looks to be in order. I am at a loss once again. Anybody have an idea? Not looking forward to spending 200-300 for a new smoker, with the budget beign tight. ARGH
