    Thinking about the mailbox mod on my MES, but have a lot of questions

    Not the best pick because of the lighting, but thought i would post so you can see the mostly final result. I ended up taking the mailbox to a metal fabrication shop and they cut the hole for free. I am actually using it today for a pork butt, so we will see how the smokey flavor turns out...

    Thinking about the mailbox mod on my MES, but have a lot of questions

    Cold Smoking a pork butt before Heat Smoking

    Hello All- I have a Masterbuilt Electric Smoker. For a beginner, it works pretty well. My biggest complaint is it doesn't get smokey enough.
