    New guy with MES - planning my first smoke

    Welcome aboard. I used the loader when I first started. It only really heats the chips when the heating element comes on. I used to use a torch to get the chips started before I load them. I think your plan of attack is a good one. Can't go wrong with the 3,2,1 method. Show us pictures of the...

    MES 130B is way off. Causes or Fixes?

    MES's thermometers are always wrong. Never trust them. My temperature always go way down when I first put a large honker of meat in there. Wait a while it should level out.

    Stuffed Saddle of Rabbit and Bacon Wrapped Wino Rabbit

    Looks great. When I was a lad my mother used to make rabbit every Sunday. Years ago when I lived in the "big" city the butchers always had rabbit. I recently asked the lady behind the counter if she ever has or gets rabbit. She says "heck no who could hurt those cute little bunnies". I'm German...

    Smoking snob

    I used to make my own beer years ago. Loved to make dark dopple bock. One time I screwed up and either it wasn't done fermenting or I added to much sugar for the secondary ferment in the bottle which gives it a nice head. I opened up a bottle and bam it exploded. It sent dark beer all over my...

    Smoked Venison Tenderloins

    Not sure if they were loins or tenderloins. The packages just said "loins". They were quite small but very tasty.

    Smoked Venison Tenderloins

    So I'm not really a venison kind of guy except for venison summer sausage which I make and love. Decided to do some tenderloins I got from a friend. I put them in a plastic bag with coca cola and a Teriyaki marinade that I had in the fridge. Let sit in the fridge overnight. The next day I fired...

    Does anyone use the MES cold smoker attachment?

    I have one and I use it all the time and I like it. I don't even use the chip loader anymore. I have it set up with piping similar to a mailbox modification which makes for nice clean smoke. I also have it set up with a router speed controller which is basically a dimmer switch (see photo)so...

    Smoke generators!

    I use the MB cold smoker unit for hot and cold smoking. Ran a short piece of stove pipe from it to the hole where the chip loader was. I put a router variable speed control on it, which is just a dimmer like switch. Load it up with chips and turn it on high until I get a good smoke going then...
