    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    Thanks for the reply Bear. What about coating the inside with anything? I remember doing something like that on my 30 in MES.

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    I am not sure if this has been mentioned or not, but are most people still 'seasoning' their new 40 in. MES gen 2.5 smoker? I am picking one up today. I thought I read somewhere that because of the inside material of the gen 2.5 that most were not. I could be wrong, it's been a while since I...

    AMNPS leftovers

    Probably a dumb question, but do you clean your AMNPS any way special?  Or just soap and water?

    AMNPS leftovers

    I've done a few smokes now using the AMNPS (with the MES 30) and sometimes I have leftover pellets, like maybe half a row or so.  Is it ok to put them back and reuse them at a later date?  Or should I just throw them away?  I hate to waste them if I am able to reuse them.  Thanks.

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    Thanks bear. I can't seem to find the newer gen 2.5 on masterbuilt's website, it appears they only have the older gen 2 unless I'm missing it. For my own sanity, is the main difference between the 2 and 2.5 the small shade cover over the lCD panel and legs?

    New MES Bluetooth Digital smoker

    A quick question on identifying the Masterbuilt 40 gen 2.5.  I was at my local Sam;s Club and saw this model: http://www.samsclub.com/sams/masterbuilt-smoker/prod15560335.ip?xid=hdr_locator_my-club_6322 It looks like the same one from amazon here: But the Sam's Club model has legs and what...

    MES 30 and AMNPS problem

    Just did the boiling water test.  Both probes tested at 212*.  So looks like the probes are functioning properly.  I had to raise the temp on the MES 30 to 252* to get the Mav probe to read 235* earlier.  Glad I did, only problem is I am not sure the total time the smoker temp was at 235*, I am...

    MES 30 and AMNPS problem

    Both of my probes are long and narrow silver probes, so I am thinking I don't have the older style.  Therefore I am assuming that it does not matter which probe I use for smoker temp.  I also am assuming that I can use #1 or #2 for smoker temp as well.  Would you agree? When this next smoke...

    MES 30 and AMNPS problem

    Bear, two questions. Should I be using probe 1 or 2 when using the Mav to check smoker temp? Or does it not matter? And maybe a dumb question but how do I check it with boiling water? Obviously stick the probe in boiling water, what should it read, 212*?

    MES 30 and AMNPS problem

    Ok will do, thanks.  One other quick question about the MES 30.  I am doing some ribs right now with the 2-2-1 method so I am not using meat probes for IT.  The MES is saying 238 and the Maverick probe (which I am just using to measure IT of the smoker) is only saying 198.  Which do I believe...

    MES 30 and AMNPS problem

    Hi guys, I have been having an interesting problem with my AMNPS going out during a smoke.  I read here that Bear suggests putting the AMNPS on the two bars in the lower left of the smoker but when I do that, it goes out every time.  If I put the AMNPS on top of the wood chip burner, it works...

    Smoking two pork butts at once

    Thanks for the reply.  Yeah I am using the Maverick ET-733 with 2 probes, so I will have a probe in each piece of meat (instead of the 2nd one monitoring the inside of the smoker itself.)  As far as room goes, I remove the top rack and set the top pork butt on the 2nd rack.  I am thinking I will...

    Smoking two pork butts at once

    Hello all.  Re-visiting the forums here to get some expert advice.  I am looking at smoking two pork butts at once and needed a little knowledge.  I have smoked pork butts before, but never two at once.  I am using a MES 30" electric smoker and a AMNPS.  My pork butts in the past have ranged...

    Baby back ribs vs. Boston Butt

    About to put the baby back ribs in, do you guys put the ribs in bones up or bones down?

    Baby back ribs vs. Boston Butt

    Dumb question but what's that difference between baby back ribs vs. spare ribs when smoked? Just taste?
