    First winter smoke

    Well just about 12 hrs in and hit IT of 203 deg. Gonna let it rest foiled in a cooler for an hour or two. Looks great! Started below zero and finished I single digits. Take that winter!!!

    First winter smoke

    I don't use the chip loader because I saw one do that before. I have the cold smoke kit so that can't happen plus I only have to reload the chips once during a smoke. For added safety the whole thing sits on fireproof dura-rock.

    First winter smoke

    The pipe pops off where it leaves the window and a cap fits over it when not in use.

    First winter smoke

    Got sick of looking at my idle mes30 all winter long. Decided to try setting it up in this (mostly) water tight room under our deck.  I can monitor temps from the couch and go out barefoot and check on things any time I want :) Started my first winter butt this morning at 9:00 with temps at -4...

    First Smoke Ever

    Thanks for the advice!Using hickory so I'll try not to over do the smoke. Do I use the vent to regulate the smoke amount or just not add chips as often? I checked the built in meat thermometer by testing with a hot dog - my trusty portable probe matched its reading within 1 degree so I trust...

    Aux Smoke Generator

    Just got a mes30 and looking forward to my 1st smoke tomorrow.  I think I would really like to be able to not have to add chips every 45min.  Reading here it sounds like there are some methods to get many hours of constant smoke without tending. Thing is all of them seem to mention using wood...

    First Smoke Ever

    Prepared to start my first smoke tomorrow morning. Never smoked anything or even seen it done. I love good Q so figured I'd dive in. Bought a digital masterbuilt electric smoker with remote (20071011). Think I got a great deal on it (179$).  Just seasoned two 8lb pork shoulders using...
