    Frisky brisket - QView til it Hurts

    Checked the smoker around 3 am. Must have shut it off in the dark because the temp was down to 125 at 6 AM. I pulled out the AMNPS, which had almost burned through two rows anyway. Adjusted the heat to 225 and spritzed with apple juice.

    Frisky brisket - QView til it Hurts

    Cheese is awesome. Melted my first batch. I need to smoke some more cheese so I don't run out. Brisket is my first attempt with the AMNPS, other than the cheese. I learned not to rush and let that AMNPS burn really well before putting it in the smoker. It kept extinguishing before (1st...

    Now I understand what all the fuss is about brisket

    Nice. I'm trying my first brisket right now. I'm intrigued by this buttermilk recipe. I have a brisket/yogurt recipe I want to try with my homemade yogurt. Wanted to keep it simple for the maiden voyage though. Looks awesome.

    Trying to decide what to get

    No worries, didn't really bother me. I guess it is hard to tell in that dark picture with my back to the camera.

    Trying to decide what to get

    Oh, and get an AMNPS. One of the reasons I got a smoker was to cold smoke. Cheese is easy in the Masterbuilt with the pellet smoker. Haven't tried summer sausage and other sausages yet, but I will when I find the time.

    Trying to decide what to get

    I love my Masterbuilt 30" electric. I have converted my indoor oven to a bread storage unit since I got the smoker. It was an easy modification, lol. I have had zero problems with the unit, knock on wood, and it cleans up in a snap. Just spray the grates with PAM and wrap the water pan and drip...

    Chicken Thighs (Hickory Smoked)

    This forum is making me fat! I have to try this. Thanks for including the detail, really helps. Those tatters look as good as the chicky. I'm starting to believe I could sell my stove to buy more meat for the smoker. I may never cook inside again.

    Wood Chips will not burn?????

    Make sure you have the chip tray in the correct position. I meet a little resistance when sliding mine in place in that little rectangular area. Mine starts smoking before it ever hits 225 on the thermometer. My Masterbuilt thermometer is within a degree or two of my secondary thermometer so I...
