    "Baron Von Schwein" 120 Gallon Horizontal Tank RF Build. QVIEW!

    Loved reading this thread.  Thanks for the entertainment!  When this is all done, are you going to make it look like a pig, as others have done?  Thanks again, Brian

    Brinkmann Smoke N' Grill

    Lots of people use a chimney to get the coal burning and "ashed" before putting them in, so there's little drop off in temp.  As you use your smoker and become more familiar with it, you'll know when to light the chimney so it's ready when you need it. HTH, B.

    1st run with my MES 40... Eureka! ...Now with Q-View added!

    Cooked it at 215.  Did a 3-2-1, but the 3 was more like 3-3/4.  I had trouble using the AMNPS at first and had to keep opening the door, so I went a little longer.  Came out great! Later, B.

    New MES 40's Maiden voyage is underway!

    It went great!  The AMNPS worked like a charm after 2 hours of my being frustrated by it.  All cuz I didn't read the directions well enough!  I started a thread in the PORK forum with Q-View, etc... Thanks for all the advice!  This smoker will do wonders for my cooking! Later, B.

    Yup.  Clearly says Cherry can be hard to keep lit and to put it on top of Oak or another easier burning pellet...  Could have saved myself 2 hours of frustration! Live and lern... B.

    1st run with my MES 40... Eureka! ...Now with Q-View added!

    Got my MES 40 from Sam's Club a few days ago. Christened it this AM with 3 racks of spares. nothing fancy rub-wise; garlic, onion, salt, pepper and on one rack some KC spicy rub I have. Came out great! Did a 3-2-1. But it was more like 3-3/4 - 2-1. I had a bit of a learning curve getting...

    To the original poster (JimmyK?), What kind of pellets were you using?  I had a 2 hour learning curve this AM on my first run with my new AMNPS.  For the life of me I couldn't get the dang things to stay lit.  Started out great, but each time I went to check, they were out. I'd relight, wait 5...

Burned it off this AM.  BUT, realized...

    Thinking about a new smoker...

    Well, I skipped the soap as suggested.  Finished breaking it in last night around midnight.  Too much to do today, so looks like Ribs on Saturday!  It was surprisingly tough to get the controller connected on top when assembling it.  Do you all really take it off and bring it inside after each...
