Guys,
I have a chance to buy a pretty much brand new MWS pellet smoker. I have an MES 40 B now and really like it. I've heard good things about pellet smokers and have been doing as much research as I can. What are the pro's of a pellet smoker (not grill) over an electric.
Thanks guys!
So, we started with this
Now we’re here
Hoping this comes out ok. The shoulders were given to me by a friend. They looked pretty good. Leaner than I expected.
Smoking with a mix of apple and charcoal pellets as well as lump charcoal in the chip tray.
Cruising right along.
Thanks to Masterbuilt customer service, I received a brand new MES 40 due to some issues with my MES 40B. I was able to exchange the MES 40B at Academy and Masterbuilt sent me another one. Woo-hoo!
So I can only keep one. Which one should I keep?
A guy I work with shot a hog in his hunting club in Trinity Florida. He gave me 2 shoulders to smoke. I've been told these can be gamey and have an could unpleasant smell. Now this hog is <125 lbs and was a head shot and hunted without dogs. I'm being told it should be ok but is there...

I have been having an issue keeping my AMNPS lit in my MES 40. For anyone else dealing with this, 2 things I did today seemed to fix the issue.
Drilled out the 3 holes in the chip loader for more airflow. I’ve been regulating air now and this seems to work well.
Then, and I think this is...
Hey everyone!
Just got my MES 140B and love it. I went one step further with an Auber WiFi WSD 1500H-W PID controller. Very easy wiring modification and it works like a charm! Lots of great info here guys. Keep up the great work!!
Is this normal? The paint finish is wrinkling and flaking off. I knew it wouldn’t look new forever by I though I would get past 2 smokes before something like this started.
Hi all!
Great forum here. I have been lurking for a few weeks now and finally bought an MES 140B from Academy for $199.00, can’t beat that price!! I also purchased the Auber WSD-1500H-W WIFI PID controller. Just got it set up and it’s awesome!! Doing a seasoning today and Sunday will be the...
