First Pork Shoulder on the MES
Smoked my first pork shoulder on my MES today. I'm not an avid smoker, but only due to having young kids and running everywhere on the weekends. Thus the MES and not a real wood smoker. Regardless, up til now I've only been a chicken and ribs guy, so today I made my dive into a pork shoulder... -
Chicken or Turkey ... Never smoked either
Thanks for the info. I've been reading many of the posts in the poultry section. Didn't realize li wasn't posting in the riht section. I think I'm going to brine. I've got an old water cooler I plan to use. The turkey will be going in this afternoon and will go on the MES tomorrow afternoon... -
Chicken or Turkey ... Never smoked either
We are thinking about smoking either a chicken (or 2) or a turkey for Christmas, but have never smoked either one. I've got an electric smoker and have been successful with ribs so I'm wanting to expand my horizons. I'm looking for suggestions, prep, cook times, methods, etc. Thank you in... -
Second Smoke, First Using 3-2-1
@Mythmaster - That's some good info. I haven't spritzed yet, but I'm going to try it on my next smoke. Today I didn't even soak the chips, just added more every hour. A 30 min soak and then drain the water would probably nail it. Thanks for that info. I hate opening the door. My first smoke I... -
Second Smoke, First Using 3-2-1
With all the people around by they time it was all done I didn't get a chance to snap any more photos. Needless to say they turned out great. A few things I picked up from this smoke with the MES. First, I think I'll do 3-1.5-1.5.Second, meat selection is everything. I had some Costco ribs and... -
Second Smoke, First Using 3-2-1
This is my second smoke using my electric box style smoker. Rubbed the ribs with a variation of Memphis Dust and I'm now about 3.5 hours into the 3-2-1 method. Threw in a splash of apple juice/bourbon mix with the tinfoil wrap. Here is a photo of the ribs prior to cooking and after the first 3... -

First time using a smoker, is this right?
Norther Greenhorn, I will make sure to take pics next time. I'll also try the 3-2-1 method. I kept the 220-230* range. Never opened th door once I put them in. As for rub, I used the Memphis Dust rub from Meathead's site. I used at least 2 tbs, if not more on each side with a mustard/oil base...- camalama

First time using a smoker, is this right?
They turned out great. Left them on for the full 6 hours. Sorry, no pics, I didn't even think about it. I was a little disappointed in the appearance. I thought there would be more of a crust on the meat but it was more oily than crusty. I think this is the difference in combustion and electric...- camalama

First time using a smoker, is this right?
My wonderful wife got me an entry level, weekend warrior style smoker for my birthday. It's the Masterbuilt 20070910, the vertical electric smoker. I preseasoned it and did the break in right away. This weekend I made up some ribs and went to work. I set the smoker to 6 hrs 30 min and let it...- camalama
