    If no one has tried parmesean cheese in the smoker, I HIGHLY recommend it. It is fantastic by itself and on spaghetti!

    Alright, I'm sorry I'm being lazy and not doing my research, but I am in the middle of a 36 hour call at the hospital (I wonder how my patient's would feel about me looking up ways to make bacon....). I have 8lbs of pork belly in the freezer at home and I want to make it into delicious bacon. I...

    AMNPS + MES40 with mailbox mod troubles

    Just an update: I ended up rigging a aquarium pump to the mailbox. It worked great for about 2 hours, then the smoke stopped. I think this was more due to the fact that it was so humid out yesterday. I'm going to try it again today or tomorrow. I'll post again how it works. Thanks again for all...

    AMNPS + MES40 with mailbox mod troubles

    I moved the smoker to the floor, so we'll see how that works. I also drilled a second 1in hole in the back with a damper. I've still been heating the pellets in the microwave, but I may try to several runs of 90 seconds each. I'm using the propane torch to light the end for a minute or so.  I...
