    MES 30" 2nd Gen w/cold smoker- 8lb Packer Brisket - QView

    The power went out on the block at 10am. At first I thought I had tripped the electric box by running the smoker and attachment out of the same outlet so I'm glad it wasn't me! Power company says it'll be two hours before it's back on. Glad this is a dinner brisket and not a lunch one!

    MES 30" 2nd Gen w/cold smoker- 8lb Packer Brisket - QView

    Woke up at 4:30am and put it on at 225' with hickory chips. It's now five hours later at 9:30am and I'm holding steady in the stall at 151' IT. Have been for about an hour. The left therm is in the flat (146') and the right one is in the point (151').

    MES 30" 2nd Gen w/cold smoker- 8lb Packer Brisket - QView

    Here is a shot of it with the rub and wrapped in seran. Just put my hand in it for scale. It'll be 24+hrs in the fridge prior to smoke. Will probably put it on a bit after midnight.

    MES 30" 2nd Gen w/cold smoker- 8lb Packer Brisket - QView

    At some point tonight (it's 8:30pm right now in Boston) I'm going to put an 8lb packer brisket in my 30" 2nd gen MES - my first one in the MES. I don't need it until dinner tomorrow so I'll probably have to extend the rest quite a bit or maybe even put in the fridge to reheat later. I just don't...

    I was told not to do this....

    Hey, thanks for the input. I don't know jack about electricity and wouldn't know how to tell how many amps my outlet is good for. It must be enough I guess because I haven't had any problems. I had read in the threads that other folks had issues with tripping the breaker when using both out of...

    Hey looks awesome! I'm a newcomer to these boards too. Just joined a few days ago. I'm in Boston. Doing a rack of spares today. I've got the 30" MES too. Added a cold smoking attachment to it and am using it for the first time today. That butt looked awesome! Glad it went well.

    30" 2nd Gen MES. Manual and forums said not to use the same outlet for smoker and cold smoking attachment. I'm doing a rack of spares at 225 using the MES for heat and the cold smoker for smoke. Seems to be working. Am I missing something? Is it not getting all the power it should and it's...

    New to Boston and Smoking

    Hi everybody! So I've been in Boston since December 2013 and recently bought a second-floor condo with a deck. City smoking is another kind of thing. Law says you can't have a grill on the deck, but nothing about smokers so I got a 30" 2nd gen MES. Had it for about three months now. I put the...
