Hello!
I'm new to the MES world. The smoker is working well, but the temp is all over the place & it leaks a lot of grease down the front feet while cooking. Is this normal?
Does anyone have any troubleshooting tips for the leak? I've leveled it and tilted it toward the back. I've also tightened the door a little.
For the temp:
I put in 2 auxiliary meat thermometers. The one in the meat reads the same as the built in thermometer. The one in the cabinet shows the heat going all over the place. It's up to 50 degrees hotter than what the MES says. However, the meat has cooked perfectly each time.
Is this normal or can I calibrate something?
Thanks for the help!
