Thanks for the information. I took the back plate off finally and it looks like one of the wires is fried. My concern now is replacing the metal tab on the wire and it fitting on the male piece because the wire length is very short to begin with. I think that would be the cheapest route to...
First thing I did was check for power, it wasn't a breaker. The unit turns on, has lights and allows you to set everything it just wont heat up. I am just really dissapointed with this MES 40 because I bought it in Nov 2012 and can't believe it has already died.... Also invested in an AMNPS...
So this past Friday I smoked 2 boston butts and they ended up finishing around 10pm. The following day I was warming up my AMNPS and attempted to fire up the MES 40 and I noticed after about 10 minutes the Maverick and Temp gauge on the smoker was pinned at 86° and nothing was heating up...
Can you provide me any information as to about how long you should expect to smoke a turkey as it relates to pounds? I know when doing a boston butt bone in, it's approx 1 1/2 hrs per pound and a typical stall around the 140 degree mark...... I've not done a turkey and really want to test one...
Hey driedstick....I smoked them per the recipe at 170-172 degrees (it fluctuated here and there) for 2 hours..... Placed the AMNPS at the bottom left, and pretzels on the 2nd and 3rd shelf.....
OK, so I did the pretzels for the first time and I need to ask this question because I've never used apple flavor in my AMNPS... They almost taste like I pulled them out of a 3 alarm fire!!!! I followed the instructions to a T as you can see below. Maybe it is just me but I'm not use to that...
I would recommend you pull the chip loader out at least 1 inch to 1 inch and a 1/4.... Sometimes I've had to open the actual chip tray a 1/4 to 1/2 inch also, most times I keep that shut.. Place you AMNPS underneath the water pan making sure it is protected from drippings or it will put it out. ...
Looks like some good TBS!!!!
Nice TBS inside ......
Extra Sharp Cheddar (top left / bottom left), Sharp Cheddar, Colby Jack, 1 piece of Gouda.
I would have to agree with the several 100 posts I read, they smell and taste like they were just pulled out of a 3 alarm fire... I used my...
Gotcha.... Appreciate the feedback and suggestions. I was out today so I picked up a brick of Colby, Mild Cheddar and Extra Sharp Cheddar and Gouda. I've got them in the smoker now with some Apple smoke from the AMNPS and my Maverick ET-732 says my temperature is right around 68 degrees to 70...
So when you smoked the cheese do you even turn the MES on? I would think it would melt and since you're just trying to permeate the cheese with smoke, you're not cooking it rather just using the heat from the AMNPS to do its job correct?
Thanks
Tony
