    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    Thanks. Yes, I DID read the U bolt mod article. Great article and pictures. As soon as my tubes (2) arrive I'll take one of them with me to Lowes/Home Depot/Ace and get the U bolts and put it together. Just bought a 5 pound brisket (flat) from my local butcher and will smoke it per all the...

    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    Thanks. I just ordered 2 12" tubes from Amazon which should arrive tomorrow. I'll add the U bolts later tomorrow in time to smoke a brisket flat on Sunday. I will lower the back of the assembly as others have done but will try smoking with regular pellets vice trying to grind them up in a blender.

    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    Thanks very much for that. It seems as though the majority favor the tray and placed on the lower rack right side. I'm going to buy both the tube (and add the U bolts myself) and the 5x8 tray and give each a try. Neither are very expensive and the pellets will work in either. Am going to do my...

    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    Thanks. That DOES help. The more I read the more I am convinced that the AMNPS 12" tube may be the way to go. I saw some pictures in these forums where folks used U bolts to make a stand and then put the tube in an aluminum tray to catch the ashes. Very clever and would be something I could...

    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    Thanks. Here's a picture of th inside of the MES smoker that I have owned for couple of years. The wood tray is in. It works OK in the standard factory configuration but folks seem to like the A-MAZE-N pellet smoker so they don't have to keep feeding the wood chip tray and get more consistent...

    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    Thanks. I have attached a copy of Masterbuilt's MES 30 interior. Does my configuration look like yours? I don't know the height of the A-MAZE-N 5x8 pellet tray but it looks like it wood fit in the area you mentioned with the wood chip tray (4) removed. Also, if located right above the heating...

    A-MAZE-N pellet tray in a Materbuilt MES 30

    I would like to try using the 5x8 A-MAZE-N pellet smoker tray in my Masterbuilt MES 30 electric smoker. I'm sure others on the Smoking Meat website have already done this but haven't found a thread of messages that discuss where and how to put the pellet tray in the smoker. For example do you...

    Can I finish Ribs, Pork Butt, Brisket, anything in the oven?

    Quick question. Do you leave it wrapped in foil until ready to Quick question, if finishing a pork butt in the oven do you leave it wrapped in foil until ready to pull? Also, I imagine wrapping it and finishing it in the oven softens the bark. Is that an issue? Best Capt. RL Cremer P.s...
