    Maverick probe placement

    I smoked a chicken quarter tonight as a trial run for family vacation. I can't seem to get probe placement right on chicken. When I can just about bury the probe in a brisken or butt it works great. On stuff like chicken thighs and now this quarter I am not getting a good reading. Is the only...

    Vacation pre smoke?

    Heading to the beach in a few weeks with 13 family members. Would like to smoke some stuff before going. Pulled pork and brisket are always great reheating, what about chicken? I'm thinking brine, season and smoke until done. Then I may need to freeze... and then mop and grill at the beach to...

    Reverse sear venison bacon burgers

    Sorry no q view but this happened quickly after work. These turned out awesome, very moist and perfect amount of smoke. Took 1 lb of ground venison, since it's very lean we typically will take 1/4lb of bacon ends which are mostly fat and put them in the food processor if we're making burgers...

    Not bad for the first try. Very moist but I think I'll use finishing sauce next time to go next level Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    First butt

    5.5lb butt took 9 hours to get to 165 at 230 degrees. Took it to 203 in the oven at 250 over 2 hours. Sound right or odd? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Mes 30 temp huge variance HELP

    Ok before any of you kind and far more experienced people had a chance to reply I got impatient and went with my hunch. I figured the probe was making contact with something throwing the Temps off so I moved the one pan. Hated opening it BUT as soon as I did the reading sky rocketed and I'm...

    Mes 30 temp huge variance HELP

    I'm on my first smoke using the MES 30 gen 1. I've got it set at 250 with 2 pans of beans in it. 1 pan is on the 2nd shelf, 1 pan on the 3rd shelf. Top and bottom shelves are unoccupied. Amnps smoking nicely, chip pan slightly out and chute partially out. My maverick currently reads 203 and the...

    Offset mod help

    I have an el cheapo offset charbroil and I put in an extended smokestack and recently put a cookie tray by the fire hole to push smoke further row and keep heat off the meat closest to the fire. I'm smoking turkey legs now and the smoker has remained at a consistent 200 degrees the whole time...

    set and forget

    I just called Masterbuilt to see what kind of replacement fee I would be looking at on a heating element if I had problems. Not bad! The girl I talked to though said that only the units with model #s ending 10-14 (2010 - 2014) are the ones with replaceable heating elements. I thought I was...
