You will be so pleased with the
AMNPS. I too purchased one several months ago and have really been trying to learn how to use it. Getting it lit and producing thin blue smoke can be a challenge due to soany conditions. One weekend I did four pork butts and the juice kept putting it out. Couple weeks later we did four racks of ribs and again had some issues but put a pup tent over the
AMNPS and that helped. This weekend I smoked two chickens and the smoke was beiruful but I could not get the MES 40 to 275 and I am still trying to figure out why.
Todd / owner of
AMNPS is top notch, just order the product and NEVER use that piece of crap chip tray with the MES. Wish someone would make a product / smoker in the USA worth a crap.
