It was one of the...

    Electric Smoker Help Needed

    Iv looked at that one before as well but was worried about the size of the heating element on the 1100 and the capacity. Do you have this smoker? If so how much does it hold in a load? Also is the smokin tex the same as the smokin it?

    2012 Masterbuilt Smokers - NEW 30" & 40" Models!

    The had a reasonably solid product before they revamped it and shot it to hell. Still tempted to buy one from Sams to see if they are truly fixed even though I think Academy sports here had two older models.

    all i got is oak, okay?

    I probably should have worded foiled differently. I should have said rest it for an hour lightly tented.

    all i got is oak, okay?

    195 to 200. Then foil for about an hour. Oak should be fine. keep the temp in the smoker at around 225-240 if you can.
