I bought a smoker several years ago and have only used it a handful of times...just didn't have the time. Now that I am working from home more often (all of the time). I want to get back into it.

I have an MES 30, version 2.5 I think...

I have a few questions...
I'm looking at doing the mailbox mod because I'd like to get the AMNPS...Which size works best for the mailbox? Also for the mailbox, galvanized or no?

Also, I've read that the built in meat probe can be a little off, does anyone have any recommendations on a wireless meat probe?

Since I will be doing the mailbox mod, I'm trying to figure out a stand or something that will support both the smoker and the mailbox but still have it be somewhat mobile to move in and out of the garage. Please post any pics of any set ups you guys might have.

Is it recommended to leave the smoker outside? I do have a cover. Just thought a mobile stand will help keep everything in better condition.

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to being more active on the threads!

Welcome to the forum. May copy this thread in the electric smoker section and get more replies.

Welcome from Gilbert, AZ, you landed in a great spot. Electric smokers do better in the garage in the long run. Covered and under a protected patio would work fine, that's what I'm thinking of doing with mine. RAY
