    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

    Al, that's a great point! Since the MES is "kinda-sorta" like a smoker/oven, I wonder why Masterbuilt doesn't just allow the temperatures to range a tad bit higher on their thermostats? Maybe have the units top out at 325 or 350? Could the unit even withstand those temperatures? I'm sure they...

    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

    That's the only conclusion I could come up with, as well. Larger heating element = less cycling, less heat on the wood chips, but faster recovery. Smaller heating element = more cycling, more heat on the wood chips, but slower recovery. Unless there's some new technology in there that we...

    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

    Recovery time after opening the door would definitely be longer with a smaller wattage element, especially if you live somewhere with cold outdoor temperatures. I don't believe this wattage to be correct. If it is, I'm sure that Masterbuilt has their reasons for doing this. Again, I'd like to...

    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

    It has a refrigeration mode that kicks in.   Seriously, though, that obviously HAS to be a typo!     Big, this one states 650 watts, which is either a typo or they've now decided to go down to roughly half of the wattage that the current model has (1200). Strange...

    nepas, did you see the new model for $299? I purchased my MES40 for $299 at Sam's, but it was the model preceding this one.

    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

    The new MES30 and MES40 look a lot more modern and now (according to the ad) go down to a temperature of 32 degrees, but they only have a 650 watt element? It looks like the drip pan is accessible via the front, too, which should be a nice touch. I can't wait to see one in person, but most...

    The Dial-O-Matic Meat Injector Gun that you ordered at Cabela's is the same as the Spitjack Magnum Meat Injector Gun. I have one and will tell you that you're going to LOVE IT!!! Pick up the case and the remaining two needles and there's nothing you can't inject...

    Big, I believe it does. Give Masterbuilt a call. They'll let you know and, if it does fit, they should send it out at no charge to you. Best of luck!

    MES 40" Larger Capacity Chip Tray Upgrade and Chip Loader Modification Performed (Pics)

    After hearing about the larger wood chip tray retrofit kit that's available from Masterbuilt, I decided to order one. I was told by the representative at Masterbuilt that it would be available after February 1st, but, to my complete surprise, it arrived via UPS yesterday. I don't understand why...
