Santa and A-MAZE-N were good to me and my new MES30 this year. Got a Mav 732 (which i already used on Christmas day and LOVE it!), as well as a AMNPS and an assortment of pellets. Yesterday was my first go with all the new gizmo's.
I did a dry trial run early in the day just to experiment...
ahh - my bad....and I know better too. got caught in the moment there and wasnt thinking about the differentiation between the parts.
thanks for the clarification. right now the chip tray is in it's home position and the loader is out 2" she's been rolling for just past one hour and the...
all,
I've fabricated a (really impressive ) tent for my new AMNPS and I'm doing a little test run with my setup as I type this, and before i do a more serious run later tonight for some celebratory new-years baby backs. I have a technique question which is more for my own understanding...
I've got the MES30 rolling for the first time with my new Mav 732 thermometer. I"ve done the boil test and both probes were bang-on at 212 degrees.
I"m finding that my mes cabinet temp gauge is off by 20 degrees, give or take......i've never even messed with the stock meat probe.
Just posting...
thanks guys! Is there a guesstimate for smoking time? I"ve been figuring it'll take about 3-4 hours to cook this smallish slab of ham (5 lbs). would you say thats accurate-ish?
Thanks, Linguica - that was actually what I was kind of thinking of doing. Being pre-cooked I'm less worried about the creepy crawlies than I am drying it out too much (i've got a pretty agressive basting plan ready). any other advice out there?
Guys - been doing a lot of reading prepping for a Christmas ham-smoke. Just want to make sure I've got everything clear. My biggest question is regarding the targeted internal temperature
My ham is fully cooked. I've read some posts saying I need to aim for 140 degrees. I've seen others...
Actually did this last weekend, just around to posting them now.
Trying two recipes here....one is a tried and true recipe from a buddy, the other was Jeff's rub and sauce.
First, I let them sit in their rub overnight
Into the MES they go
I smoked at 200 for just shy of 4 hours. While...
fear not - i thought the same thing......like i said, I'm borrowing this recipe from a buddy - and god knows i thought the same thing when i first saw his "thick strips." for my money - it was some of the best jerky i've ever had....so i'm giving them a run.
Thanks guys. I'm excited for Santa to bring me anmps....but for the next 4 weeks the chip loader will have to do.
Today I made Todd's rub and sauce. Tomorrow they have a date with a couple racks of ribs. A friend of mine has been dabbling in beef jerky, and as itype this I've got a small batch...
