New from Dahlonega Georgia
I don't know if it would be wrong but from what I have read, the 2 hour slot with the ribs tightly wrapped in foil is to hold in moisture to tenderize the meat and get that fall off the bone results. Then the BBQ sauce is added during the last hour sometimes 30 minutes before they are done... -
New from Dahlonega Georgia
Now it is my understanding that the BBQ sauce goes on for the last hour with the foil off. Is that the way you understand it? Also do you use wood chips? I have got the AMNPS pellet tray too use instead of the Masterbuilt factory tray. And yes, it is the Internal temp that really matters... -
New from Dahlonega Georgia
Sounds like it worked out really well for you. That has to be a good confidence builder which is a big part of doing most anything. I have a new MES 30" and have been trying to decide what to try first. I am thinking spare ribs would be my best bet to start with also. I watched a good... -
Missing #3
SherryT I am sure you can contact Jeff and get it. If not, I could try to attach it to a private message to you. I saved all of them. The third lesson is a good one too about adding flavor to the meat. It covers marinades, rubs, brines, injecting and sauces. Be sure you get it. Tom- THW

New from Dahlonega Georgia
I am from Indiana. It has been below freezing here for a good while now with the nights going well below zero and the days anywhere below 15 degrees or so. We are supposed to have a heat wave this Sunday with temps going above 32 degrees. -
New from Dahlonega Georgia
I went back and did as much checking as I could find and, being a newbie, of course, I was incorrect. Most everyone says wide open. A couple say half but the vast majority was open all the way. That was my first mistake in the last hour so I guess I am still doing good. Good luck -
New from Dahlonega Georgia
Take this as an answer from another new guy but from everything I have read, 1/2 way is the most consistent answer. Many use the vent holes as access for their temp probes so they could not close them anyway. I have a brand new MES 30" setting here beside the TV looking at me and if it ever... -

Is this a good deal? new to electric
I am new to all of this and just got my new Masterbuilt 30" yesterday. I think the one from the link is the 2nd generation Masterbuilt 40" which has had some issues. The 1st generation was good, the 2nd had issues and there is now a 2.5 generation which is said to be good having updates to...- THW

Quick Shout out to Thermoworks
I did a little more research on the Maverick line and learned the 732 model comes with one area probe and one meat probe. The 733 model comes with two probes that can be used in either location. If I am wrong about this I hope someone will correct me. Do you know if the Thermoworks Smoke...- THW

Quick Shout out to Thermoworks
Well, I am really new to this. So new that I just took my MES 30, 2.5 Gen out of the box yesterday. I have been trying to decide which meat thermometer to get between the Maverick 732, 733 or Thermowork Smoke. The price doesn't make much difference to me right now but longevity does. Any...- THW

First Electric Baby Back Ribs with Q-View
I am extremely new to this and just got my MES 30 so can only go by what I have read but I don't think the lack of water in the bowl mattered. I would think lowering the temperature to 220/225 and going to a 6 hour process with 3-2 1 might be worth a try. Of course the (2)hour in the process... -
mes 30 bluetooth
I am also brand new here so keep that in mind. I ordered the $199.99 Masterbuilt 30 inch Bluetooth digital Electric Smoker, model 20072115 from Academy Sports. It arrived today via FedEx. I had checked on it earlier to determine what Generation it was and it is the newest generation, 2.5...- THW

Thanks for the replies everyone. Bluewhisper, I am from central Indiana. Morgan County to be more precise. About a half hour SW of Indianapolis. I went to visit my son in Knoxville, TN last week and he had a brand new Weber Smoker he fired up while we were there. I think this was his second... -
New Hoosier here with a lot to learn
Hi all, I am so new to smokers that mine has not arrived yet. Ordered a MES 30" yesterday. Just me and the wife and we are in our late 60s so didn't see a need to start out bigger. We have a visitor about every 10 years when the census taker stops to count heads but he hasn't stayed for...
