    MES 30 Mailbox Mod Pictures

    I've done 2 smokes using the new setup and both were great. I did a brisket and some ABTs. This setup produced great consistent TBS. The mailbox has a bunch of mounting holes on the bottom which provides great airflow. It's a little hard to see but the mailbox is sitting on 2 strips of wood to...

    MES 30 Mailbox Mod Pictures

    Hey All, Just wanted to post a few pictures of my MES 30 mailbox mod, which worked out GREAT!  I've smoked a couple of times now with this configuration and it's a billion times better.  Before I had the AMNPS on the rack next to the heating element, and it would cause the pellets to flare up...

    Both probes on Maverick ET-73 are 4+ degrees off

    Thanks, I actually live at sea level. :)  And I believe elevation would only lower boiling point, not raise it (to 216 like I was getting)... I guess unless you're below sea level. 195-197 huh, interesting, I haven't even considered that temp, I think I'm going to have to start doing a manual...

    Both probes on Maverick ET-73 are 4+ degrees off

    Ahh interesting, I didn't realize they were only 3-4 degrees accurate.  Hmm OK, then maybe they don't need replacing... although it was concerning when they were reading 10 degrees difference. And FWIW I'm not blaiming the Maverick for my crappy brisket, it came out bad for tons of reasons, and...

    Both probes on Maverick ET-73 are 4+ degrees off

    So I smoked [destroyed] a brisket flat yesterday, came out over done and no good (I haven't made a good brisket yet though, still working on it, everything else I have made is good though).  During the crutch I saw the internal meat probe was climing pretty rapidly.  I saw it hit 200 and I knew...

    Couple of crutch/foiling related questions for brisket

    Hey All, Have a few crutching/foiling related questions when it comes to smoking Brisket: 1) How much liquid do you put in when crutching/foiling? 2) Do you drain the liquid off and re-wrap in foil when moving to a faux cambro/cooler, or do you leave it sitting in the crutching/foiling...

    Very long cook times for pulled pork

    @Bearcarver  is that to say you never  put water in your MES 40, like for any of your smokes, or you just never put water in the pan for pork butts?

    Problem with AMNPS and new MES 30 (the chip tray screw)

    I'll have to check out the Mailbox Mod one of these days. As a quick follow up for anybody else who happens to stumble upon this issue/thread, I was able to solve the problem by going to the hardware store and getting a shorter screw.  Note the screw/nut is metric, not standard.  I believe the...

    Problem with AMNPS and new MES 30 (the chip tray screw)

    Hey All, I got my MES 30 a few months ago and have been smoking using the chip tray.  Decided to get an AMNPS, and read the thread about reversing the screw direction on the chip tray holder to get the AMNPS to fit properly.  I've done that, but now the screw sticks out so far on the other side...
