I used two different temperature gauges to confirm. Plus my pork barely got grease from the heat.
I know I have seen other threads on mods for other MB models.
Anyway to fix this for those who had the same issue?
I have not taken anything apart. It's ~2 years old.
Thanks!
Thank you Doctor! I'm feeling a bit better. I will not have much confidence in walking too far away when I'm smoking. Can't believe this new (?) design made it past the Masterbuilt legal review of the final design draft. Can you give me the direct link to that post.
The wood sits right on top of the heating element? Is that the way it supposed to be or did I get a unit that was not put together right?
I would have thought that the wood would sit on the metal grate "above" the heating element.
Yes the reviews are quite bad for the MES 440S.
I am upgrading to the 40" from a MB 30". I can transfer the leg assembly and MB side smoker to the 40", I believe.
