MES 30 & A-MAZE-N
Just picked up an A-MAZE-N pellet smoker 5"x8". I have an MES 30. I don't want to take up space one of my racks and was wondering if anyone has tried what I am thinking about. Since I will no longer need to wood chip tray. I was thinking of removing the tray, the rack that holds it, and the...- fishacura

MES external smoking part???
I have to plead some ignorance on some of this. How do you use this? Do you just put pellets in, light and stick it on the bottom shelf? So basically it self supports and doesn't need to use the heating element?- fishacura

MES external smoking part???
I am not happy with the amount of smoke the MES 30 puts out. I have played with the chip tray but no luck. I have heard there's an external smoke generator that fits into the hole where you put the wood chips but cannot for the life of me find anything of the sort online. Anyone aware of what...- fishacura

In need of combo grill/smoker
Let me try this since it seems like it is actually a unicorn I am looking for. What if I said two sections is ok (half smoker, half grill). Propane/pellet. What brands should I look at in the $500-$800 range? So many options and don't want to go with a run-of-the-mill home depot brand if I...- fishacura

In need of combo grill/smoker
Need some help on this one. Looking for a very specific setup here. I would like to get combination propane grill/pellet smoker. If possible: 1. Would like to grill/smoke chamber to be the same. Have no need to do both at the same time so this would be easier for me (not mandatory)...- fishacura

Ribs bitter - too much smoke?
Wood was not wet but meat may have been cold (cannot recall). But I think that it's when I fill the chips I am filling that small hopper in the side of the MES too much. I am really jamming the wood in there. Perhaps instead of that I should only be putting a few chips?? -
Ribs bitter - too much smoke?
MES 40 Light rub No spritz I think I used Apple this time and I forgot to ask if that could be it. I typically had used hickory in the past. -
Ribs bitter - too much smoke?
My last batch of Ribs was pretty bitter and I'm thinking I smoked for too long. I mean overall time was still around 6 hours (no 3-2-1 method as I like them firmer) but at some point I feel like I should have stopped adding wood and just let them cook. Is there a certain time limit for the... -
1st time smoking Brisket - advice welcome
Well good news and bad news on my first brisket smoke. So I wasn't able to get the full packer and sadly went with the lean end. I'm wondering if that was my problem. Taste was great but WOW was it dry! Really dry. I even took it out at 185 to be safe but still just terribly dry. Thoughts... -
Cutting brisket prior to cooking
I will do so. Thanks to everyone for being kind, understanding of "dumb" questions and helpful. Appreciate it. While I was out I picked up some Italian sausage so I'll give that a whirl too! -
Cutting brisket prior to cooking
UGH! Looks like it didn't matter. They only had the flat....AGAIN. 3rd place I looked. Gotta order or find a good butcher I guess. So now it's lean/dry cut I guess for my first smoke. But I'll press on and make the best of it! -
Cutting brisket prior to cooking
May not have the people to eat or time to cooka whole brisket. Would it be ok to quarter it and cook half the flat end and half the thick end almost like cooking two roasts? Would that ruin the meat? Probably get flamed for even suggesting it but it's a real problem re: time and small amount... -
1st time smoking Brisket - advice welcome
Picked up some apple chips today. Hopefully I have it straight that this will be a bit milder. Went to a local market....$7.19/lb for a 7 pounder. Thought they were much cheaper so tried another market and $7.79/lb (also had sizes in 7 lb range) For some reason I thought I saw $4/lb out here... -

1st time smoking Brisket - advice welcome
Mesquite is stronger? Whoops. I could have sworn it was the opposite. Hmmm now not sure what to do. I guess I'll stick with the hickory. Not sure how I got that backwards but obviously still learning here. 2 hrs/lb is great too. Thx! Makes sense it wouldn't always be the same time and... -
1st time smoking Brisket - advice welcome
Hi all. Got my MES a couple months back and have done pork ribs twice. Loving getting into this culture. Still very much a noob and now want to try Brisket. Figured what better time than for the super bowl. Just really confused not about the rub but about the cooking process. Couple things...
