I have a MES30 and use an AMNPS which has been working well for me. But like many i'm looking for the next smoker. I stumbled across Yoder pellet smokers when i was looking for a rib recipe and the guy on youtube got a really nice smoke ring on his ribs. I know it doesn't matter... but how is a Yoder making a smoke ring as an electric smoker when something like an MES is not? Do the chips burn instead of smolder producing more of a flame? Anyone have any personal experience with the YS480 they'd like to share?
