    Top dollar paid for informed opinions...

    I have the 30" and am very happy with it. In fact, I'm going to use it this afternoon. The 30" is just fine for us 2 and occasional company. Many people here prefer the 40" because it holds more. If you are planning on smoking for large crowds, you might like the 40" The glass door is OK if...

    just a kitchen stove for a smoker??

    I don't think you will be happy running a 220 volt kitchen stove on 110 volts. When you drop the voltage by half, you don't get just half the heat. You get one quarter the heat. Darn! Do the math. Ohm's law and all that stuff. P=IE Power = Current times Voltage. How do I know? I tried it.

    White smoke

    I have had my 30" MES for several months. It works great. OK, here's my procedure that works for me. I always have water in the water pan. Leave the vent open. I never soak the wood chips. I use about 1/2 handful of chips at a time. I always start smoking at 160F. That produces good TBS smoke...

    Smoked Ham

    This is Kretchmar brand ham, sliced and smoked 5 hours on Brinkmann, vertical smoker at 200 degrees. I used hickory. It is pre-cooked so you are just looking to smoke it. Watch it carefully toward the end so that it doesn't dry out. Here it is on the kitchen table. Drop a chunk of this in...

    MES - Black or SS

    I am planning to purchase a mes (Masterbuilt Electric Smoker) in a few days. Am wondering whether to get the black or stainless steel model. 1) Of course, there is the price difference. 2) I read that the black one will get warm in the hot sun. 3) I suppose the SS is easier to clean. But...
