    Conventional oven jerky Q

    Made a couple batches of duck jerky in the oven before I got a smoker, lay it on racks and bring it up to temp, then dry it out.

    30" MES smoker is not smoking, 20070910.

    Im still waiting to hear back from the tech guy, so I took the chip tray holder to work and cut open that plate below the tray so all the heat can get to the tray, it helps, definately dont soak the chips though! Smoked alot better now, still want the upgrade!

    Thank you everyone! Ok, what is a qview? Im also going to be building a wood fired smoker bbq out of aluminum, unless that is a bad idea? In the near future. Should be fun.

    MES 30 cooking

    I was just following the directions, tonight Ill try half as many, and not soak them. They didnt even burn or blacken actually....  I also had the top vent only cracked open and I read it should be full open.  Im learning. I PM'd about the new box setup for these so they burn better too.

    30" MES smoker is not smoking, 20070910.

    Great info, just tried to season my new 30" last night, it didnt even smoke at 275* for the last 45min as the instructions say. Ill remove that layer of metal and try to get the upgrade. Thanks.

    MES 30 cooking

    seasoned it last night, with 45min remaining on the 275* 3 hour cook it says to put wood chips in, it barely burnt any of them chips..  I figured it would have done better, any thoughts?

    MES 30 cooking

    Is there anything anywhere more directed towards using just the MES 30 or similar smokers? I cant do 350* in there and it seems alot of people have better smokers that can.   Im new to this (have not even seasoned it yet) and am absorbing everything I can find.   So I guess looking for info on...
