Well for those who were lazy and undecided like me (even though I started this thread), Thermoworks sweetened the deal on a Smoke if you don't mind an open box directly from the manufacturer.
I got an email this morning about a "open box private sale" for the Smoke for $76! And today is the...
Coupon code available on the website - SITEWIDESAVE15. Also, if you have an Amex, check to see if you've got the Thermoworks offer of $15 off of $75. You can combo both if you're buying something like the Smoke ($99) which for me comes out to 88.14 including shipping and no tax (outside UT)...
Not sure if it's available on everyone's Amex card, but I saw an offer on mine this morning for 15 off 75 at Thermoworks. Good way to get a discount on a Thermapen or Smoke since both are over the 75 min. Good thru 8/19/2017
Terms:
I eventually even pulled it from the smoker and finished in the oven at 300. Got it up to 200, then toweled and put in the cooler. Got to rest for almost 2 hours I think. Didn't get a photo before pulling, but this is the pulled result
Quite tasty! And the best part - leftovers!!!
Well, I just threw out my no-crutch plan. 1:30pm and it was only at 187.... Need to leave some time to rest so I wrapped and put it back in. I would raise the temp, but I just put in a batch of ABTs as well (first time and kind of my own recipe w/ Mexican chorizo, so I'll have to post that...
OK, woke up at about 8am. Meat temp was at 167. Chamber temp was running a bit high (for my liking) at 240. So, lowered the MES temp to 250 (was at 260), opened up briefly to take pics and sprtiz with a bit of apple juice. Chamber temp now at about 233 which is good for me. Given that...
This is my 5th total smoke on my Gen1 MES30. 1 butt, 2x brisket, 1x faux burnt ends
Got a 8lb butt at Stater Bros on sale for 1.99/lb. Smoking it up for a Memorial Day gathering. Friend (who has recently gotten into competition BBQ) is doing a brisket on their pellet smoker.
Using my AMNPS...
Which way do you point the can? I imagine either facing down towards the ground or up to the sky. My gut says downwards to create an overall bottom to top of smoker flow (same as with a mailbox mod). Any specific reason for an elbow vs just a straight ducting section with the can at the end?
Hey there guys, OP here. Looks like lots of comments since I last posted. I'll try to address. I always preheat before putting the AMPS in, but given the not-so great stability of temperature of the MES, it can have some spikes anyways. I have considered a mailbox mod, but I'm just not there...
I think I've got 1/4" below the top, but the pictures may not show it well. It's definitely not filled to the brim and there is a decent amount of the row dividers showing.
So far I'm about 3 hours in and it seems to be burning like ti is supposed to. I'll be able to keep checking for about...
OK, trying this again tonight with a 9lb brisket flat
Below I've got pictures of my fill level (mix of apple and hickory), igniting, and what it looks like when I give it a bit of a blow. I flipped how I put it into the MES so the ignited portion is closest to the door and the left edge of the...
