    MES 30" Issues

    Hello all, The picture below is the exact smoker i have all i know it is the JMSS MES 30" 800 watt unit. The issue i am having is that multiple times during a smoke the smoker will emit a dull constant beep and completely shut down, at this point i will have to unplug and plug it back in to...

    Overnight smoking?

    For butts i always smoke them overnight but i also dont like foiling my meat unless i have to, which is definitely an option you could use to insure the meat will be done in time. Its just a personal thing about not using foil. Like whats said above a WSM and an MES will do good for overnight...

    Opinions On Small Gas Grills & The Weber Spirit II E-310

    I felt the exact same way about my kettle. Personally i really like all things Weber, although this is only hear say i have not done extensive research but the Spirit series is supposedly made in china (if this matters to you). i just couldn't afford any of the Weber gas grills except the Q...

    Charcoal In The AMNPS?

    found this: (Typically wood has an energy value of between 14 and 18 MJ/kg when burned. Charcoal has an energy value of around 29 MJ/kg) https://vuthisa.com/2010/09/05/is-it-better-to-burn-wood-or-charcoal/ So charcoal burns (kg to kg) almost 2x as hot as wood maybe its not worth the visual of...

    Charcoal In The AMNPS?

    Hmm... i suppose the heat could be an issue of wear and tear on the tray its self. Then maybe I could crush up some KBB and try it that way since KBB doesn't get as hot as lump... Hmmm i am still in the planning stage ill be sure to post my findings if i get around to an experiment.

    Charcoal In The AMNPS?

    Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone has tried this or not? I was thinking about crumbling up some lump charcoal and mixing it in with my pellets. Maybe a 15% charcoal to 85% pellets ratio just to help start and keep the pellets burning good and maybe even get a bit of a smoke ring while i'm...

    And you will have to keep in mind a lot of factors play into how well/long these burn as in, Brand of pellet, Density of pellet how you store the pellets, air flow in your smoker, and likely many more that can prolong or shorten actual smoke time

    Smoker shopping - help and ideas welcome

    The tray uses about 15 oz of pellets per 11-12hrs and 16oz in a pound so imma say you should get 1 smoke session per pound (depending on what your smoking of course) and a 5lb bag from A-MAZE-N is 15.99 so your paying $3.20 per 11-12 hours. as for stick burning idk and the WSM i use chunks and...

    Smoker shopping - help and ideas welcome

    I have a 14.5 WSM and a MES 30 i really like them both... The only thing id change about my WSM is the size i wish i could have afforded the 22.5. On the MES i wish it was bigger as well and the only other thing i personally dont like is using wood chips and the chip loader although there is a...
