    MES 30 fire?

    It appears the lower half of the smoker was caught on fire. (based off the char marks on the smoker walls) The fire was out by the time I realized it was off. I just tried the smoker again, and it is still not working. Won't even power on.

    MES 30 fire?

    I was smoking a whole chicken at 275 and I noticed I was getting heavy smoke. I opened it up, and saw nothing out of the normal.

    First attempt at a brisket.

    I am not spritzing. The top stayed nice and moist for the first 4 hours or so, and then it turned to a nice bark. My internal just hit 177* and I decided to wrap it, since it started to stall out.

    Boston Butt Pulled Pork (Step by Step)

    Took exactly 11 hours to reach 200* internal temp. I forgot to take a picture of the final product, but it tasted great! As soon as I picked it up to move it off the tray, the entire shoulder just fell apart, in a good way :) This pic was as I was about to foil wrap it. U I finished it off...

    Figured after a few days of lurking, I should register and make an account. Just got a MES30 yesterday and have spend the past few days lurking the site picking up tips and looking at recipes you guys have posted. I figured I should try out my smoker right away and threw 5lbs of jerky in it...
