    Masterbuilt electric smoker leaking question

    Since you have legs I'm guessing you have the analog model. You should place the level in the bottom of the smoker when you level it, not on the top as commonly done. Most of the drips that run down the front legs are from the poorly designed door. Condensation causes drips to run down the seams...

    MES Electric Cold Smoker Add On

    Type masterbuilt cold smoker in the search box above. Many posts from guy's that have them. They are supposed to fit all their digital models so if you must drill I guess you have the analog.

    OK I know I am a tight wad

    I'm not sure if I'd want to eat the next chicken you smoke after finding it was brined in a bag sloshing around with your dirty shorts!

    Masterbuilt 30 Analog Smoker

    You can! The lid simply keeps food drippings from dousing your chips. I would suggest putting a disposable drip pan on the bottom shelf over your chip pan. Lack of venting on that model smoker will keep your chips turning black, you can help a little by loosening the latch on the door to allow...

    Shipping frozen meat.

    Omaha steaks ships standard UPS. 5-7 days unless otherwise requested. Here is an example of their rates, so I would assume you would pay similar to ship. http://www.omahasteaks.com/info/Shipping-Information

    MES 30 analog keeping temp with chicken

    If you're going by the thermometer in the door it's almost useless. It only gives the temp. in the general area of it's stem. The temp. could be much higher or lower near the food! And that's when it's working! Also the analog is much more affected by external air temp. and wind the insulated &...

    MES 30" ANALOG and A-MAZE-N-PELLETs first Brisket w/Q-view

    Meatman, check out this thread. It has a few suggestions.   http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/166142/issues-with-mes The black tar buildup in your smoker is from the lack of air in your smokes. I had the same problem til I did my quickie mods. If you remove that rack and put your amaz. on a...

    Rabbit

    I make jerky out of some of my pheasant breasts, breakfast sausage out of leg meat.  I just use the same recipes as for turkey. Other wise I'll make soup or pheasant ala' king from the legs.

    Need more heat from a Brinkmann Gourmet Electric Smoker

    Or you could keep the element and just add a disposable pie pan with a few pieces of lit charcoal to boost the heat if needed.

    Good Slicer for fries and all kinds of stuff

    Never heard of them so I don't have any reviews. This looks like the same except it's an FS860 instead of an 850. Little cheaper and free ship. You can always try it and ship back if it's no good! You might also ask on the Smoking Gadgets and Tools thread, maybe you'll get more responses.

    Good Slicer for fries and all kinds of stuff

    Depending on how much of a hurry you are I would check with local mom & pop deli's & sandwich shops and local butchers & supermarkets for a used mach. 1st. While $400. is a decent amount of cash it really doesn't buy a quality slicer. More of a household, light duty machine. You may get lucky, I...

    Bear hams

    Never did one but this is all I got in my recipe book for bear ham, from Field & Stream. The hand written ingredients on the right are the same as whats printed on the left, I just needed larger print.

    Yea! I think the most you will get the I.T. up to smoking at 120 is 120.

    Good Slicer for fries and all kinds of stuff

    Don't know what you had, but the Chef's Choice 645 sells on Amazon for around $400.00. If your old slicer was comparable I'd take the motor in for a rebuild.

    chargriller 6206 thermometer?

    Since they are all made in china I think they are all re-branded from one manufacturer "  Maverick  "  who holds the patents.I think Redi-Check are the ones they sell direct. Prices probably depend on deals worked out by quantity purchased for re- brand. Here at least are some reviews from Lowes...

    Sit Out Times?

    I third that! The cold dry air in the fridge will actually do a fine job of drying. Leaving on the counter over night will be more like letting the strips decay!
