    How To Clean The Duel Fuel Pro Smoker

    Mine was out of warranty. Masterbuilt will work with you but you need to be persistent. If you have a Receipt there should be no problem.

    What gives?

    I have been reading for about a wk now on dry curing meats and salami. What puzzles me is temperature and Humidity. Depends on whose instructions you follow temperature ranges are from 50 to 70F and humidity is from 55 to 80 an many of the same products.
