    Help Me Build My Pig Cooker, Smoker, Gril.... Please....

    Looking good so far.... I use a 30" electric smoker & have no experience cooking over a beast like yours..... Just something I have seen that has always caught my eye is that most every trailer rig I have seen, you would have to almost "bend over" the tires to tend anything on the back. I...

    Bradley or Masterbuilt?

    I have had a MES 30" for about 2 years. I use it a lot & love it. Chips & wood are available just about anywhere & you don't need any special "pucks" that are expensive (Do price them before you buy a Bradley). That said, I have had to repair my MES (electrical connections burn up) 2 times...

    Tender Quick Curing Questions

    The closest things I could find on Morton's website was the one posted by Ron & there are 2 others on there that were similar: Herbed Sausage & Pepperoni, which both call for 1.5 tsp Tender Quick per Pound of meat. DO NOT interchange Prague Powder, instacure (#1 OR #2) for Tender Quick in any...

    bad first chuckie, not worth photo

    Yeah, I would suggest not closing your vent, it will also cause the bad black creosote..... I typically run mine about 3/4 open on that kinda smoke (Chucks-Brisket-Butts-Etc).... 100% when doing sausage. I'm kinda lost, as far as why it would not be tender. Anybody?

    1st Jerkey Question - Moisture

    Good info from ForLuvofSmoke...... I also use the Hi-Mountain cure & seasonings & really like it. I suggest cure no less than the directions state, which is 24 hours. I personally like Flank Steak, cut with the grain, not against it, but that's just me & prefer oven cooked or smoker cooked with...

    bad first chuckie, not worth photo

    I am a MES Onwer & A couple things come to mind here...... Did you mop or baste the Chuck during the smoke?.....Did you add liquid to it when you foiled it?.... The electric smokers are notorius for NO SMOKE RING...... Some say you can add a charcoal briquette to the pan & achieve a smoke ring...

    hamburger meats?

    Good topic actually..... I just recently bought a (stuffer) and a grinder, primarily for making sausage , but have ground burger in it also. I recently went to a store called cash & carry & they had a cryovaced package of what was called special ends, or something like that...... It was $1.75...

    My smoked salmon fillet recipe/process

    **** dude!... Why confuse them?.......It's way easier than your method!.. ..... Take a "Typical" filet of Sockeye or Coho, cover it good with Kosher Salt for 1.5 - 2 hours....... rinse it .....dry it....... and smoke it.... That is the best smoked salmon you can get.... All the other BS is just...

    MES Cover?

    I have the 30" MES and am moving to a new home that does not have a covered smoking area & it will have to be stored outside. Does anyone know of a cover that will fit the 30" MES, if I can not get one from Masterbuilt? Thanks!

    Thinking about a new smoker.. Suggestions?

    I went for the ease of use in the MES. Other than fixing a wiring problem, it has been perfect and going on 2 years now.I would buy another one for the ease, but like the flavor of charcoal a lot!
