    SUPERBOWL

    Buying a Masterbuilt Model 20070910 Digital Electric Smoker mes30 ???????

    I have the mes 30" 20072010 model which I think is comparable from what I can tell to that model. I have a hot spot rear right but I usually just turn the racks the last hour if I have a full rack which is the only time I noticed it. (Wings, bacon wrapped chicken livers, jerky) I have never had...

    WHAT IS EVERYBODY SMOKING, GRILLING, FRYING, OR STEWING FOR THE SUPER BOWL?

    I made the mac and cheese balls and my friends have all taken off with "stuffed meatballs" since then so I am sure we will have some of them. I made snack mix, summer sausage, have about 1/2 lb of smoked cheese left, and plan on baking 2 bries. (I know I am actually going to use that thing in my...

    Wow! first batch is done and it is amazing! Thanks again for the idea man! Going to take that, my homemade summer sausage, what's left of my smoked cheese, and a baked brie to the super bowl party. Should be a big hit

    first summer sausage

    Well the "spam log" turned out delicious. A little dry because it wasn't in a casing and I just chilled it in the fridge overnight and tried it today. Flavor is dead on though. Going to save my actual salami for the super bowl. Slice it up and serve it with some smoked cheese I've been saving...
