Use a MES 40 and smoked with apple wood.
The chicken was a little on the salty side. My daughter was helping and got a little carried away with the salt by the taste of it. Not too bad, though.
Made some chicken and ABT's tonight in the new smoker. These are the el cheapo hind quarters from Wal-Mart for about 79 cents a pound.
Injected the chicken with cajun butter and seasoned outside with salt, pepper, and garlic. Smoked with apple wood.
ABT's are filled with pulled pork and...
It is time I gave my new MES the proper Alaskan break in.......smoked salmon.

1 cup brown sugar
2 bay leaves crushed
2 tablespoons crushed red pepper
3 tablespoons black pepper
½ cup soy sauce
½ cup salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Up here we call them hooligan. We usually net a few gallons every spring and freeze them up. They are wonderful smoked and make a great snack.
The natives call them candle fish due to the fact that the oil content is so high that when dried they can be lit and burned like a candle.

Salmon dip is wonderful stuff. One thing I do is to smoke my salmon and then can it. The canning process draws out the smokey flavor and it really makes an awesome dip.

And don't get...
Correction!
I do NOT have a unit with a thermostat problem. My wife was the one who took the water outside and just told me that it was already getting hot when she opened it to add the water to the pan. Guess I was deaf and did not hear the element kick in when I turned it on and assumed the...
I have the AMNS on the way already. Should be here early next week. Till then I will make do with going outside every so often to add more chips.
That will not stop me from making a lot of goodies for the game tomorrow. I have 15 pounds of butt, the makings for a couple fatties, and will be...
Got my tax refund today and on the list of must haves was a new smoker.
Went to Sam's and picked up the new MES 40. Never thought I would say this about a smoker, but the remote control is a nice touch.
Got it seasoning as I type and will have some pork in it come morning.
The snack stick tip will work just fine without casings.
I usually use whole muscle, but when I do ground meat jerky I prefer the snack stick over the flat jerky tip.
