    Thinking of trying my hand at Sausage ....advice????

    Here is what I am thinking.... I have one of those KitchenAid mixers.  Don't have a grinder attachment (yet).  Do they have a "stuffer" attachment (I think they do and it might be a package deal)? I'd like to start by buying a basic pre-ground sausage mix (chub) that is basically ground pork...

    Well my wife has had enough of the smoking in the MES 30, so pulling a fast one by cooking a beer butt chicken in my trusty Weber Grill.  I had bought a bunch of chips before I got the amazing AMZNPS so I need to use those up.  So, I have a foil chip pouch with apple and cherry back on the heat...

    Increasing the Range of a Wireless BBQ Thermometer (Maverick ET-73) by siliconghost

    I've smoked a few times with the ET-73 and noticed an issue with the range as well.  Doesn't seem to want to go 100 feet.  Thinking the double paned thermo glass windows are having an effect.   http://www.instructables.com/id/Increasing-the-Range-of-a-Wireless-BBQ-Thermometer/#intro Not sure I...

    I Need a Possible Explanation

    I'm a new smoker but have diligently researched this site and as I understand it a brined bird will cook faster than an unbrined one.  I was expecting 6 hours on my 12 lb turkey and it took closer to 5.  I suspect it has to do with the moisture in the bird and the temp of the smoker.

    MES owners - question about your door seal

    I know this will sound weird and there are people out there that will question what I propose, but will do so anyway..... If you have (or plan to get) an AMZNPS (and most owners who have an MES 30 or 40 would likely agree that you should) a little extra airflow at the bottom seal might not be...

    Thought I was working my way up to a brisket but now I see I need to work my way up to a standing rib roast (that's the same as a prime rib right?) That looks amazing.
