    My old Masterbuilt smoker just died.

    I think my old Masterbuilt smoker just died. It's hooked up to an Auber Instruments controller which is working correctly. It was working great, and then the temp started to drop, and the elements were not hot. I looked on the site for replacement Masterbuilt parts, and they are not...

    Aging meet in the 3 foot chest freezer.

    My new Auber PID

    I am two hours into my first session after installing my new Auber PID: WS-1211GPH controller on my old Masterbuilt. Once the smoker reached its target temperature, the temperature has never changed. Auber Instrument's tech support was annoying to work with, and the manual was almost useless...

    Rewiring...Does this look, right?

    I have an older model Masterbuilt smoker then the one tallbm made the very thorough rewiring tutorial for. I just want to make sure this is correct before I plug it into the wall. I connected the #1 and #3 wires and the #4 and #2 (see attachment) wires together. Does this look correct? Thanks

    Mailbox Mod

    I can see why you all use the mailbox mod. I followed Bear's Bacon (Extra Smoky) recipe today. I was cooking at a low temp for a long time. The smoker temp target was 120º. Using the A-MAZE-N Pellet Tray on a hot Ga day the elements hardly came on. The pellet tray apparently provided enough...

    Modifying a MASTERBUILT?

    I have an old MASTERBUILT smoker. Parts are hard to find or nonexistent. The digital control panel screen is going out, and it's hard to see the numbers, which makes it hard to set the temp. I have looked, and new digital control panels for this model are no longer available. All I really...

    Curing Fridge Set-Up?

    OK, pops6927 assured me there were no stupid questions on this forum. I’m gonna test that. I’m looking over Bear’s database of tutorials. Under the heading Cured and Smoked products, there’s a subheading called Curing Fridge Set-Up. The tutorial doesn’t talk about why or when you would use...

    Salmon and wood chips

    I’m new to this so if I asked stupid questions be nice. While I wait for my A–maze-N tube and pellets to get here, I thought I would try my (new to me) electric smoker on some Salmon. I have some wood chips so I might as well try using them. My thought is that I would try to smoke the salmon...

    Storying Pellets?

    I’m new to this, so if I asked stupid questions, please give me a break. All right, so I picked up an A-Maze-N tube and a 40-pound bag of 100% hickory pellets. The 40-pound bag was the best price point for the 100% hickory bags on Amazon. My guess is it’s going to take me a long time to go...
