    Masterbuilt temperature question

    My old body kit model# is 20070108. My new one has 3 numbers: 20070108, 20070407 and 20070707. I am assume that means it is a 3rd generation of the body. I am hoping it works when I get the door. I'll keep you informed.

    Masterbuilt temperature question

    I have used mine a few times but am more experienced with a propane smoker. The food cooked in the MES has a much stronger smokey flavor. How often do you add more wood when you cook with the MES?
