I have a masterbuilt electric smoker. I have used it for a year or so with no problem, I have only smoked things in it about ten times. I just tried smoking a pork butt in it last week, in which it did cook but I could never get my smoker to smoke. I used my wood chips and soaked them in water and did everything the same as in the past any suggestions to what I need to do?

The best thing to do is what most of us MES owners did. Get yourself an AMNPS, and get up to 11 straight hours of perfect smoke without touching it. You'll never regret it, and your smoking will be so much better & easier.

A little more info please Bear don't forget I am still a newby what exactly is a AMNPS AND A MES, you can laugh at me later for not knowing but first explain a little I have saw everyone talk about these things but have no idea what they are, and I can see I have a lot to learn.

MES is your smoker (Masterbuilt Electric Smokehouse).

AMNPS is "AmaziNgPelletSmoker". It is awesome. Your MES, just like any other electric smoker will never work as good as a 5 X 8 AMNPS. You just put pellets in it, and light it. Sometimes it's a little tricky to learn how to get it lit properly, but once it is lit properly, you can Cold, Warm, or Hot-smoke for up to 11 hours, with perfect, consistent smoke, without touching it.

Just click on the business card at the bottom of the pages, that says "A-Maze-N-Smoker".

The genius who invented them and sells them is "Todd Johnson" a well respected member of this forum.
