    New MES 30" User - Novice Smoker - First Use Tips?

    It's strange that so many people recommend the MES but it doesn't produce good smoke? I'm confused by this... it is a smoker... wouldn't that be an important part of the smoker being a good one?

    Ok... since I read these replies... I already went in and ordered the digital one (Masterbuilt 20070910) since you guys recommended it.  I ordered it for rush deliver to be here by tomorrow. I also ordered a Maverick ET-732 (the dual one). So now I am all set... I can return the analog one...

    MES Smoker -- help please

    I just realized the MES 30" I bought from Home Depot is not the digital version.  Is this bad for a first timer? Should I take it back and get the digital one or will the one I got be a good one still? I don't think there is a big difference in price... arg... I wanted to start smoking this week.
