Masterbuilt XL Propane tank life?
Tax return is soon upon me and I had originally set on getting the electric MES40, but after reading the manual of a friends and the "no extension cord" warning, I've decided that I'm going to go with the MBXL. My question is....one tank of propane will last how long when averaging ~225-250* ...- ghostred7

Afraid of Brisket
I'm probably one of the newest smokers on these boards. If you go through my posts, you'll see that I dove in head first with brisket as my 2d thing EVER. This is due to the fact that we're a pork-free household and beef ribs are "meh." I'm the type of person that only learns by trying... -
First Brisket in new Smoker - Q-View
VERY nice! Didn't realize that a propane smoker would provide a smoke ring like that....awesome. I've been looking at the same model (propane XL). Good stuff, sir!!! -

1st Packer Brisket (late Q-view)
Thx all! I probably did....was drunk and half asleep when I sliced it -
1st Packer Brisket (late Q-view)
Thx! I only had 1 days worth of leftovers. The guests, some of which are from homes that don't 'que' on a regular basis (or ever), went back for 3rd & 4ths o_0 I thought it was a little dry and not as good as my last one (due to chamber size, air flow, and difficulty maintaining temp when... -
1st Packer Brisket (late Q-view)
Having had marginal success with flats more than one time in a row + group of ~8ppl visiting = my smoking a brisket. I have the CharBroil American Gourmet 600 with this brisket stuffed in at an angle and doing all it could not to poke out of the sides (didn't want any part of it over coals). I... -
I hate brisket
Resting is very crucial. Heck...I've gotten to the point to where I rest steaks even LOL. My 1st 2 briskets were flats. #1 was a nightmare and probably close to your description here. The 2d flat was incredible. I had a water pan and spray bottle filled with half apple juice and half... -
Another noob MES 30 vs. 40 thread...
Hate to bump an old thread....but seems that the Sam's by us no longer carries the 40 and dunno when they'll be getting more (if at all). Lowe's has the 30 for ~$149. Since we're a non-pork household, we do more beef, especially brisket. My question is are the shelves in the 30 big enough to...- ghostred7

Brine a breast with 20% solution??
I picked up a boneless turkey breast @ Sam's the other day for me & the other half for our thanksgiving meal. I plan on smoking it (duh...i'd smoke cereal if thought it'd come out edible LOL). I was planning on brining it (solution TBD), but it says "Enhanced with 20% of a natural solution."... -
Freezing a brisket?
Cool...thx all. I tossed in the freezer and when it's time, i'll do a 2-day thaw (1 thaw, 1 rub) before I smoke it. It'll probably be after tax return so i can use it to break in my future MES40. Its too big to do on my current set up (small Charbroil American 600). Now I gotta start... -
Freezing a brisket?
I bought a packer @ Sam's while I had the funds to buy one but promised my kids (they live w/ their mom) that I'd wait to make it for them. Is it safe to put in the freezer? Thaw in fridge overnight to defrost? Counter? Just keep in fridge and cook early before I see them THEN freeze some... -
Another noob MES 30 vs. 40 thread...
It's all about affordability. **IF** I cannot get the black friday MES30, then I **WILL** get the Sam's $299 MES40. I guess what the "ask" is (and has been answered to a degree) is should I just hold off for the 40 til after New Year (tax return) with the possibility of being asked to smoke...- ghostred7

Another noob MES 30 vs. 40 thread...
I've read through a lot of the 30v40 threads, but none have mentioned some of what I'm going to ask (that I saw), so I'm gonna ask here..... When I smoke anything....it's typically for no more than 4 people at once with occasionally +2 adults. Would you see a need to upgrade to the 40 from the...- ghostred7
