Welcome from Austin, Tx. You're gonna love this forum. Don't want to rub it in, but the family and I had a big crawfish boil last Sunday. Nothing in the smoker, but the mudbugs were delish.
Awwww Thanks guys. Another day teaching high school seniors, but fun planned for the weekend. Forecast is for rain all weekend, so family and friends are coming over for a crawfish boil.
Thanks Ronp. Just a little confused. Set the smoker to 210* or the temp probe to 210*, since I will have the smoker at 225-235? Sound delish with the meat slowly cooking in au jus and onions. Also, my control seems to run higher than my Maverick therm. Do I go 225-235 on the control or on...

Welcome from Austin, Texas. You'll be amazed at how quickly your skills will improve with the info and encouragement you get here. I have a MES, which is a Masterbuilt Electric Smoker. It's a great way to get started. The temps are very controllable, and you still get a good smoke flavor and...
I would like to smoke a brisket overnight on my MES. Never having done an overnight smoke, I am asking for tips. I know I won't be getting much sleep -- ohhhhh the scarifices we make for smoked meat.
I'm planning about an 8 lb. packer and hope to eat around 1:00 or 2:00 PM.
Let me know what...
