    Bob's MES 30 Analog build

    I ordered a 1-1/2"ball valve and will use a nipple and a ring or something to hold in place. The reason I say a ring or something is because I read somewhere here that some people have extended the chimney on the inside of the smoker. Can anyone talk about that? Is there really any benefit to...

    I tried to get that smokestack after reading your thread, it is out of production. I talked to Lowe's and they have no idea what else to use but; "How about PVC?" I like the dual probe Auber but will need to wait a bit. Got crap to spend cash on first. I'll make due with the cheap REX for a...

    Can you brine Turkey and Chicken together?

    I should have titled this with Pork first given the forum. I am doing a smoke that will have a Turkey, Turkey legs and Chicken thighs. My brining setup is a 5 gallon bucket and I wanted to just toss the chicken thighs into the bucket at the end of the turkey brine ans take them all out at once...

    Can you brine Turkey and Chicken together?

    I'm guessing it is not recommended but I am curious. I guess I would ask the same about beef and pork. I never thought about it before as I just paid attention to the anything to chicken cross contamination. What say you?

    Been here since 2009 but never posted, until now.

    I live in Terrell, TX in an apartment (recently divorced) with a very small porch. My history for smoking food includes mostly large offset self built smokers and self built upright charcoal burners. I have built a lot of smokers over the years. Now that I am in an apartment with no place for a...

    INSTALLMENT #4 I made some progress on the smoker today. First, the replacement heating element came in so I tackled it first. It did not fit as is so I had to modify the mounting. I cut off the surrounding metal from the leads and adapted it to fit into the housing left behind by the old...
