CB and Belly Bacon
Hello All, I've had 3 different pieces of belly curing in different cure/brine recipes and also did some CB from a chunk of leg that was cut up. It was cheap and thought it would be good to use to try out some CB. Loin was 5.99 at my local QFC! All were cured for 10 - 12 days. The CB dried...- dirtyduc83

Gen 2 MES 40 and mailbox mod tips
Thanks Richie! That seems to be what is left out of most posts on cold smoked bacon . Hot smokes have been good. I have done salmon and tri-tip with great results. Will report back on my results.- dirtyduc83

Gen 2 MES 40 and mailbox mod tips
Yes! Thank you David. The amount of smoke through the window looks about the same as what I see in mine. I'll have to mess with some of the other variables and see what could be creating the off flavor. I'm hoping that 2 days uncovered in the fridge will create a good enough pellicle to...- dirtyduc83

Gen 2 MES 40 and mailbox mod tips
Hello All, In search of the infamous TBS I purchased an AMNPS to use in my MES 40 gen 2. I've used it for some hot smokes and some cold smokes but seem to get quite a bit more white smoke than I would like (especially for cold smokes), which has created some less than stellar results. When...- dirtyduc83

First Bacon Recipe Concern
I noticed my current dry curing bacon has done the same as yours and absorbed back most of the liquid. Only my second time curing bacon so I'll wait for the more experienced to drop some wisdom on us.- dirtyduc83

bad pellets = bad cold smoke...
I recently purchased an MES 40 gen 2 and AMNPS and started cold smoking cheese and bacon. I received a pound of Hickory pellets(Todd's) with the AMNPS and bought a bag of Myron Mixon pellets off Amazon. I figured they couldn't be that different than the pellets I received with the AMNPS. I...- dirtyduc83

Is it just me?..........
I noticed this with some recently smoked cheese. I smoked some Dubliner and saved a small chunk to compare the flavors of smoked vs unsmoked. The color was very similar right after pulling from the smoker, it was about 30F outside and smoker temp hovered around 60-65F through the two hours. ...- dirtyduc83

AMNPS
I have had similar smoke levels out of my AMNPS in my MES 40". I've used Myron Mixon Apple pellets and the Hickory pellets that came with the AMNPS. Both produced the same smoke levels with the rows filled 3/4 of the way up. The smoke in the chamber was consistent but what was coming out...- dirtyduc83

Hello from Seattle
Hello All, I've been lurking since I purchased a Gen 2 MES 40" after Thanksgiving. I also purchased an AMNPS after seeing all the great reviews and deciding that filling the chip tray every 30 min was a waste of time and effort. I have since hot smoked salmon, cold smoked cheese and bacon...- dirtyduc83
