    Giving up on my Traeger

    I could be wrong but it seems like it cost's a lot to cook on a pellet smoker . You might want to look into going charcoal . There is a very non costly kamado grill called a Chargriller Akorn . I have one . I also have a MES with the Masterbuilt cold smoker attachment and the AMNPS (AMNPS is a...

    2012 MES 40 vs. Old Model MES 40

    What I was saying was that  when putting the Maverick probe by the back wall where the MES sensor is  maverick reads 330 degrees when MES was set to 275. When I put Maverick probe on left side of MES about mid point in the box Maverick reads approximately within 5 degrees of MES display .And...

    2012 MES 40 vs. Old Model MES 40

    If your temps in your MES are higher than what MES display say's ,don't worry about it .Sounds like you know how much of difference so just adjust temp setting according to difference . Watch where you are putting your probe . Try putting it on left side just under draft control and about midway...

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    Baconater you will probably not get a smoke ring no matter what you do. I used crushed up lump ,chips,pellets and split chunks in my Masterbuilt Cold Smoker attachment with my MES and have never got a smoke ring .With  my charcoal kamado cooker no problem with a ring or my offset also. Smoke...

    masterbuilt cold smoker kit

    Stayhot what you said about the AMNPS is right on the money ,it is very unreliable as to whether it will stay lit. Did all the tricks to make it work,microwave pellets,chip drawer and loader pulled leaving it out of smoker longer after lighting and different placement in the MES. I found the...

Now here is the thing I found out quite by accident .When I...

    Cold Smoker Kit

    It's normal to get some smoke from the top. You will notice some from where it plugs into side of smoker too,mainly when you open smoker door .No big deal .Still beats loading the chip tray every 30 minutes and you can use a variety of smoking material,split chunks,pellets,chips,and broken up...

    mes cold smoker kit.

    It's about time people are finally hearing about the MES electric cold smoker . I am using it right now to do some country pork ribs in my MES30 . I don't use it to cold smoke just use it to do long smokes without having to load the tray every 45 minutes . I put in a mix of broken up lump...

    Chargriller Akorn Kamado ,one third the price of the egg .No where near as heavy and cooks every bit as good as any ceramic Kamado out there . Oh yeah,uses very little charcoal.
