I have my 40" MES and A-MAZE-N-SMOKER ready to go. If I can figure out how to upload pics from my wife's camera (She think's...

    diff between 30" and 40" MES

    Last week I picked up the MES 40 w/window. I love it. If you go with the 40" make sure it's 20070710 model. This one has replacable heating element and controller. I paid $300 at Academy; unfortunately Academy does not offer an extended warranty. I think someone stated that Sam's Club offers and...

    New to smoking ribs....

    Drill the hole, drop it in, but no silicone. I just tightened the nut to a little past hand tight. No leaks, works great. If memory servers, I did not drill a 1/2" hole, I found a bit just bigger than the threads. Remember to removed the burrs. I also added 1 to my Webber grill.

    New to smoking ribs....

    I added 2 temperature gauges to my sidebox. My pit came with a 3" gauge far side of the barrel and I added 1 in center of the lid and 1 near the fire box. They're less than 10 bucks and easy to install...

    Rib Racks

    I've seen a lot of Qviews of people using rib racks. I thought about getting a rack, but never saw a need as I always smoked my ribs flat with the bone down. So are racks used just for space savings or is there another reason I'm not aware of?

    Smoking Briskets

    Panther, I want the A-MAZE-N-SMOKER   so that I can start my brisket at 1:00 or 2:00 am and go back to bed for 5 to 6 hours. My wife does not get up until at least 9:00am so she'll never know the difference. LOL So please don't tell her. Mike

    Smoking Briskets

    Hey all, I'm use to cooking brisket on my charcoal/wood offset smoker with the temperature on the far side the pit at 250F and no water pan. Smoking time is 7 to 8 hours for an 8lb (trimed) brisket (wrapped for the last 2). From what I found, I should set my 40" MES at 200F and smoke the...
