Lenny,
Nice, if you're like me, you are excited about getting some meat in that thing I am sure.
I just bought a MES 30 Analog electric and did a Rack Mod to it and getting ready to season it, if you look in the manual it gives you a procedure for "seasoning" it, but it would seem the link to a explanation in a previous post is accurate as well, I bought mine because I want to use it to make Jerky, and the Char Grill I have even running the side burner box would require constant attention to ensure temps were controlled and meat constantly monitored, not only that, but I have been slaving over that thing , never leaving it sitting at its side in the back yard on the wood platform all day during cooks for years and years and years, wanted something more reliable for temp control, with smoke (
AMNPS for this one over the chip tray), so now I can actually walk away and not have to micro-manage the grill/side burner, so that is what I am looking toward, and I have lots of friends using propane smokers and grills and they turn out the same great tasting eats, its all in the method, and there are reasons one can be a little better than the other in different situations and methods, its all good, personal preference, and I cannot wait to get this MES Analog Electric up and making Jerky, then Hams and Roasts, and instead of being locked down to the Char Grill, I can be chillin with the company !
I will surely use the Char Grill still, but this is going to be nice, you're probably like me, pretty excited
And I like your son there smiling like a mouse with a big chunk of cheese hehehe
You have a Smoker Wing Man, you can train him to make mom and dad great eats later in life
Nice pic, Pit Masters Assistant standing next to a nice Smoker as well, Congrats
