    Billbo's world famous dry rub & BBQ sauce recipe's

    Hey guys! I've been wanting to make Billbo's sauce for quite some time. I have one question, how sweet is this sauce? I'm not a big fan of really sweet BBQ sauces. That's why I really like Billbo's rub. It's not a sweet rub. Thanks!

    IAShane, great looking ribs! Is the cherry chipotle BBQ sauce a secret? It sounds really good.

    mes cold smoker kit.

    Whitvt, welcome to the forums.I own the 2nd generation MES and the MES cold smoker kit. I've had good experiences with both. I wanted to be able to load more chips so I bought the cold smoker kit shortly after I got the smoker. I originally bought the AMNPS cold smoker but after months of mods...

    mes cold smoker kit.

    Thanks Raf. My cold smoker kit will be delivered tomorrow. I'm excited to give it a try. I've read others that have tried pellets in the cold smoker. Have you? If so, how did it go?

    Chicken, my new favorite method

    I know I'm going to sound stupid but what size bottle of the Crystal Hot Sauce is used in this recipe? I've found 6oz and 12oz bottles in the grocery stores around me. Extra heat won't bother me. I'm concerned about the extra salt if I'd use too big of a bottle. Thanks!

    mes cold smoker kit.

    Has anyone tried using the MES cold smoker loaded with just pellets? I know the instructions say not to but I spoke with Masterbuilt and was told that it may or may not be ok to use a load of pellets, they just haven't done enough testing to say whether or not it is ok to do. Hence why the...

    sweetest wood?

    Hey everyone. I need to order some pellets for my AMNPS and I was looking at the variety of different pellets that Todd sells. I thought I'd give something different a try. I was wondering, how does peach wood compare to alder wood? Does it produce a lighter flavor than alder? Thanks in advance!

    Hey everyone. So I thought I'd give a quick update from this weekend. And I know, no QView, never happened but I assure you that it did haha! I got my MES going Friday night at almost midnight. Once again, 2nd gen MES, vent wide open with the 90 degree elbow hooked up to it, smoker box and chip...

    Craig, What are your thoughts on the AMNPS burning for that long and then suddenly going out? It just seems weird to me that it only had a little over an inch of pellets left and went out.

    I will NOT give up on my AMZNPS !

    Ok just to update you guys... So I duplicated everything that I did the other day. This morning around 8am I turned the smoker on and got it warming up. I then went through the routine of lighting the AMNPS. At 8:40am I put the AMNPS in the smoker, set the smoker to 225 degrees, turned the...

    I will NOT give up on my AMZNPS !

    Yeah it's definitely been a pain, that's for sure! I just hope that I'm over the hump now. Like I said, tomorrow I'm going to repeat last night's experiement. If it works, I'll be estatic. Since I've only used the oak pellets, are the pitmaster's choice pellets any harder to light?
