    My take on the Mailbox Mod for the MES 30

    Subscribed.  Wanna see how it goes.  I have seen some realer killer mailbox mods on tables, stands and carts but I am no good at building things and usually get hurt when I pick up a screwdriver.

    First big smoke on the MES---not as well as I had hoped.

    Thanks guys. The chickens turned out good but could use more smoke flavor. The fattie was OK but it got a little dry. Tasted good. I guess I'll try it the other way and preheat and also pull out my chip loader a bit. I am going to smoke two more fatties again Tuesday so we'll see what...

    Pork Loins

    Hatch Chili Meatloaf

    I havn't checked in my home town but a couple months ago I was out ridding motorcycles in El Paso with a buddy who has relatives there.  They cooked for us and of course there were green chilies in just about everything.  Hatch, NM is just a short drive away so I though nothing about it but made...

    How do I dry out some moist pellets to use in my A-Maze-N-Smoker

    Im going to have to try this.  Living in South Texas where our humidity can sometimes drop to a low 85% and we feel dried out.  Everything is damp here.

    MES 40 and AMNPS

    I ordered one last Saturday and it will be here on Friday.  Excited is an understatement. I have the MES 30" and although it's really new, it is a PITA to keep watching and adding wood.

    low smoke in masterbuilt

    I am VERY new to the Masterbuilt and smoking right now.  I run out of smoke within 30 minutes so I am added another tray of wood twice an hour.

    Masterbuilt electric smoker 3 racks and thermostat

    O'h yeah.  Break really easy.  I have a bunch of branches that broke off a long time ago but are still hung up in the trees.  When they fall I'll use them.
