Tony I have owned a MES for several years now and still love to use it as well as my other smokers. Good choice on starting with the Butt as you will love it when finished. I know everyone has their own way of smoking but this is what I do with mine. I put EVOO and rub that in, next I use a...

Just ask the local Bar Keep

Uprights are nice so are the others. I can get more in the New Braunfels Hondo Deluxe than I can in the NB vertical. Both are great smokers and both cost the same at Academy. Hondo takes up more space.
