higher temp on Masterbuilt portable?

[nverlast1]

How do I get a higher temp on the portable smoker? On high the most I get its like 250.

It's a smoker... Remove the meat in question to your kitchen oven... Works for me....

Is it gas or electric, and what temps are you looking for?

It's gas. Trying to get to 275 to smoke wings with crispier skin.

275* probably won't get you crispy wings w/o burning them. You'll need to get up over 300*. Check the specs. on your smoker - it may not be rated/capable of reaching higher temps. Some of the guys with gas have a few tricks up their sleeves to get their temps higher. Hopefully one will chime in.

Sorry I didn't notice this was already in the propane smokers section.

My MB gasser hit high temps well, it could practically grill. It was the lower temps that I never could get. Maybe the regulator needs to be reset? Check for bugs, kinks, debris etc too.
