    SMOKIN-IT SMOKER

    @Hooked, you got 12 racks into a #2?! I just ordered a #3 with an extra grill with the hopes of being able to do 10!

    SMOKIN-IT SMOKER

    Thanks guys, I knew I was going to be anxious which is why I bought it yesterday (Sunday 2/24) because I'm going to be out of town this week. I figured I would be so busy this week, I won't have time to think about the smoker or where it is. Besides, the web site says it will be shipped within...

    water pan

    Sorry to follow up with an even more basic question, but, what is the purpose of the water pan? Isn't it to add moisture and to keep your food from drying out? This isn't me being sarcastic, I really don't know. My former MES came with a water pan, and I always used it as instructed. Was that a...

    SMOKIN-IT SMOKER

    Thanks Sarge,  I might just do that. I'm going to get one regardless, but I thought since I have been this patient and I'm not in any particular rush, I want to make sure there are not any free shipping deals I might be missing out on. I think that price was the FedEx Ground so I don't think...

    Sorry Black, I've spent so much time reading and learning from this site that I never got round to updating my profile. Done now.

    SMOKIN-IT SMOKER

    About to pull the trigger on the Model #3 but I'm seeing a shipping price of $120 for ground. Thats adds quite a bit to the cost. Has anyone seen any free shipping promotions ever? Or Coupon codes that might be helpful? I was thinking perhaps Amazon might have the smoker with free shipping but...

    Masterbuilt Smokers removed from the local Sam`s Club

    Sarge, maybe it was just Sam's that pulled it off their shelves. I did read here about there being a retrofit for the wood chip holder or assembly because they tended to flare up. I can attest that it was impossible to use dry wood chips in mine without the flare ups. Who knows?

    SMOKIN-IT SMOKER

    I don't have the Smokin-It yet, but when I had the MES, the 1200 watt heating elements was especially handy when smoking in freezing temperatures. You will be amazed as to how much heat you lose when you open the door for any reason and how long it takes to recover with a small heating element...

    Help! I'm in Limbo.

    Thanks Mr. Happens, You might have been the first to call my attention to the SI#3 smoker. I do have a question for you. When I get mine, it will live outside on my patio. It will by under an overhang, but, outside non the less. I plan on getting a cover for it so it will be protected from rain...

    Help! I'm in Limbo.

    Thanks Mr. Spike, but I'm starting to really get excited about the Smokin-It Model #3 smoker. It doesn't seem to have the bells and whistles of the MES or the window, but it seems to have the size, a 1200 watt heating elements and the build quality seems to be better than the MES 40 (18 gauge...

    new masterbuilt,

    Had the same concern with my MES 40. Turned out that mine was cooking much hotter that the display indicated. I think you will find many people strongly suggesting that you not trust the display till you have calibrated your smoker. That involves using a separate prob you trust and seeing what...

    SMOKIN-IT SMOKER

    Seriously thinking I'm going to go with the model 3 Smoking-It after returning my MES new gen 40. You know the funny thing I've noticed after reading hundreds of MES posts from hundreds of admirers? There is not a single one that uses the descriptor "built like a tank".  Glad to find this...

    Help! I'm in Limbo.

    Bonnie, I had the new generation. I liked the 1200 watt heating element because it gets cold out here. I am honestly not sure what the recall was for, but I had multiple problems with mine. I really did like the food that came out of it, but it didn't feel like it was going to last years :-( I...

    Thanks for posting Chef, I am starting to get excited about the Model #3. Took my MES 40 back and am looking for alternatives. This might fit the bill.

    Smokin-It #3

    Recently returned my MES 40 to Sam's. Multiple problems, and not excited about the quality. Seriously thinking about the #3.

    Help! I'm in Limbo.

    So, as I'm thinking about this, I have come across the Smokin-It Model 3 electric smoker. There is not as much talk about those on this forum, but it might fit my needs. It seems to hold just as much food if not more, the constructions seems to be of better quality, it also seems to hold more...
