    MES - Need More Smoke

    I have no problems with getting good smoke at low temperatures. I guess with the chip tray loaded right on the element I question the wood chips. Have you tried different chips? I never soak mine with water and feel that I can control it well with the ability to load chips without having to...

    Collagen Casing Near Disaster

    I have read where people have problems with collagen casings having blow outs due to scratching them when they are placed on the stuffer tubes. When I place mine on the tube I rub the tube with vegetable oil first. I noticed you said you used 21 MM casings but what size is the tube you are...

    Beef Snack Sticks

    My MES came with the wire racks. I like them because they seem to clean easier in the dishwasher. If you will PM with an e mail I will send you the excel sheet.

    Beef Snack Sticks

    I am using 19MM collogen casings. Those fit very good on the 3/8" stuffer tube. I prefer the collogen tubes because you don't have to soak them

    Beef Snack Sticks

    These are not greasy at all. They are made from 90% lean beef using Excalibur seasoning from Midwestern Research out of Wichita, ks. Mix the seasoning with the ground meat, stuff, and let set over night then smoke them for about 6 hours and your done! The stuffer in the picture is a Dakota...

    Beef Snack Sticks

    The Excalibur is a great product. I really like Midwestern resources and they are very helpful, kind, and knowledgeable people. The flavor is very pleasing and I have written it in an excel sheet that measures it out by weight.

    Beef Snack Sticks

    Well it was a cold weekend here in the middle of Kansas so I decided to make some snack sticks out of some ground beef. My MES did a great job with only being about 10 degrees outside. It took about five and half hours to get them smoked. I am trying my first pics here so I hope it works.

    new smoker and jerky???

    Great looking build. I do have one small concern with the door latch........ I think you might want to "child proof" the door so it cannot be opened by little people.

    Any New 40" MES reviews?

    I can tell you that I have a 30" and have been able to smoke enough for my family and more. The times I would like to have a 40" is when I smoke snack sticks. If I do more than about 10 or 12 lbs I do the smoke in two batches. Not a problem with summer sausage but there are only four racks...

    New Build help needed

    For a counter weight you could weld a piece to the lid that would double for a counter weight and a stop for the lid so it does not open too far. More of a counter-lever than a weight.
