    GMG Daniel Boone Temp Test

    Yep, went all the way around. Have not noticed much difference. Though I have not smoked on it at all for over a year. Temp issues and blowing circuit breakers, I have been using my electric smoker for smoking. I'll try again when winter is over. I am hoping it was just too much on the circuit.

    Pelletheads

    If you are on Facebook and have a GMG, there are a couple of GMG groups there. I joined 2 of them. A lot of recipes, info and faster responses to questions. I have not been on Pellet Fan in ages.

    Bradley smoker

    Regardless of the brand of smoker, I think most temp gauges are not very accurate. Most folks around here use temp probes like Maverick ET-732 or the Thermoworks Smoke. They have a probe for meat and a ambinet probe for the smoker temp.

    MES40 and MED Cold Smoker kit

    What Al said.. I use the same set up. The only difference from Al is that I use the semi rigid dryer vent.

    Green mountain grill Davy Crockett

    I don't have the Davy Crockett, but have not worked out the temp on my Daniel Boone yet. I got a new heat shield, so have to start over on finding the sweet spot.

    GMG Daniel Boone ?'s

    I have not done alot of msoking on my Daniel boone, but what I have done has come out pretty good. The build seems solid, have not seen any issues. the only con for me right now is the temp swing from left to right. 50-60 degree difference.Have to move the heat shield left or right to find the...

    AMNPS and dust

    I am thinking of cold smoking some cheese. I have a MES30 and will use the AMNPS in a mailbox mod. Will the AMNPS with dust stay lit without the MES being on? Is there some kind of draft needed? I though someone on this forum had trouble with pellets staying lit without the MES being on. Thanks

    New Smoker - Ready to Get Started!!

    Found some info from a manual on Home Depot site. It says to remove the water pan and coat interior of smoker with oil, but not the electric element or controller. Use your favorite wood and burn the smoker at 300 degrees for 45-60 minutes.

    New Smoker - Ready to Get Started!!

    Either a Maverick ET-732 or a Thermoworks Smoke. I have both, but like the Thermoworks the best.

    New Smoker - Ready to Get Started!!

    Not sure which one, I am not familiar with your smoker. But the AMNS is for sawdust, it is not for pellets. and it is rated for max 180 degrees. The AMNPS will burn both dust and pellets and is rated for 275 degrees. And there is also the tube that the other person mentioned.

    Pork Butt on Pellet Smoker

    Get yourself a Maverick or Thermoworks Smoke to measure the internal temp. that is what will matter. I've had butts take 1.5 hour per pound and had some go 2-2.5 per pound. So it can vary. And there is nothing wrong with finishing it in your oven if you want to speed it along. a lot of folks do...

    Need a GMG Daniel Boone Wifi

    Got mine locally. A chimney/fireplace business also is a GMG dealer. If you have not already checked, GMG website has a dealer locator. Maybe you can find one nearby that is not the Sportsman Warehouse.

    Need some advice! Masterbuilt 30"

    Sounds like you might be getting creosote with that bitterness you mentioned. Could be poor air flow, Seems like most of us with the MES do not use the wood chips, instead we use the Amazen Pellet Smoker that Uzikaduzi describe above.

    Smoker probe placement question

    I run my probe wires down the vent and let the probe hang through the same shelf that the food is on. That way the probe is just a few inches from the food and will be pretty close to the same temp as where the food is.

    Just got MES 30 2.5 gen (I think). Where do I put my AMPS?

    that sounds excessive. you should get 3-4 hours per row. Did you have the tray or chip loader pulled out some? May have got too much air and burned up. Happened to me before.

    Electric vs Pellet

    Seems like most folks on here get a Masterbuilt electric smoker. Not sure of the model number. but I think the 40 inch Generation 2.5 is the one most feel is the best.  I have a 30 inch model, I believe the model number is 20070910. I also have a Green Mountain pellet smoker. With the electric...

    PIT BOSS 700FB

    Try a Amazen tube. Quite a few folks here use the tube as a supplemental smoke source.

    Charbroil 505 temp and smoke issues

    Sorry, can't really help much on that specific model. But I would get a digital probe like a Maverick ET 732 or a Thermoworks Smoke. The built in thermometers are notoriously inaccurate. Most folks I read on this board do not use wood chips anymore. They use the AMNPS with pellets. You can even...

    looking to do a mailbox mod

    I agree with SmokeTrailsteve. I used aviation snips and it took just a couple of minutes.
