    MES control panel problems

    Glad someone resurrected it. I was all set to smoke some ribs and ABTs for a party tonight, and my MES (sitting on the deck, 24 degrees this AM) wouldn't turn on. Brought the control unit inside for a bit, hit the thermostat with the torch I use to light my AMPNS, and it came on just fine. Lost...

    Not a deal. Home Depot sells them for that everyday.

    IDevice IGrill2 Thermometer

    How are people using this when it just started shipping today? And why use this AND a Maverick? This can monitor the smoker temp as well with the optional ambient probe.

    Used MES questions... Help a newbie!

    If you can get all that for under $100, find out where he lives, and camp out in his driveway until he's ready to sell it to you! You won't be disappointed.

    Disappointed with amount of smoke; bought a master built electric 40" added updated part sent by mas

    After a bit more experimentation with my AMNPS, I figured I'd report my findings. Remember, YMMV. It seems, at least for me, that the major issue with the AMNPS is getting it started well. I THOUGHT it was going good the first time I tried using it, but apparently not. Just to refresh, I've got...

    Disappointed with amount of smoke; bought a master built electric 40" added updated part sent by mas

    Where did you find it for $59? It's usually $10 more where I've seen it. I've got an AMNPS for my MES 30, tried using it for the 1st time last night. Got it to light using the torch, but it didn't want to stay lit and didn't produce much smoke when it was lit (had the vent open, the tray pulled...

    First attempts...

    Okay, picked up a new Masterbuilt 30" (without the window), and couldn't wait to get started. After seasoning it (figuring what the heck, it's already hot), I threw in some chicken wings, drums and thighs, and some turkey drums. Didn't really have much time to prep them, just threw some Emeril's...

    First smoke on my new Mes 30 findings

    Just picked one up for my new MES 30, and was wondering where to put it. Is this next to the existing chip tray? Do you leave the original chip tray and loader in place?

    Getting started

    What, you're not supposed to use these in the living room? :) (don't worry, it's out back on the deck) After I "seasoned" it (figuring what the heck, it's already hot) I threw some chicken drums, thighs and wings and some turkey drums in there for a few hours, came out great! Hoping the rain...

    Getting started

    Been a fan of smoked foods for a while, finally got around to making some. I'm in Hazlet, NJ. Picked up a Masterbuilt 30" (the black one, without the window in the door), and I've got an AMNPS coming tomorrow. I've got the smoker seasoning now, house smells great, but I wish there were some meat...
