    cold in New Yorkand Masterbilt

    does not seem to get up to temperature set. I have my turky smoking and have the smoker set at 275 degrees- it is only going up to 210-215. It is cold outside (where the smoker is) 30 degrees but I didn't think it would affect my Masterbilt this much. Are others having the same problem?  Paul

    Smoking a 13 lb turkey Sunday

    I've read talk about splitting the turkey etc. (for safety). I have my turkey in a curing brine right now. I would like to keep the turkey whole as I am really getting practice for thanksgiving. Should I use a higher temp? I have a Masterbilt 30 electric smoker.  I would appreciate all the help...

    Hi Mountain poultry brine

    Got some and it says to brine at least 24 hrs and not to apply smoke until the bird has cooked for an hour- do you guys subscribe to that idea and what is the purpose? Paul

    Have Masterbuilt cured

    and am ready to smoke. Apparently the thermometer probe wires (have the 732) come up and out the air vent at the top of the electric smoker- correct? Also I would like to ask how high does the temp need to be to create smoke ( will it smoke at 225?). Thanks...
