    First Pork Shoulder on the MES

    Smoked my first pork shoulder on my MES today. I'm not an avid smoker, but only due to having young kids and running everywhere on the weekends. Thus the MES and not a real wood smoker. Regardless, up til now I've only been a chicken and ribs guy, so today I made my dive into a pork shoulder...

    Chicken or Turkey ... Never smoked either

    Second Smoke, First Using 3-2-1

    @Mythmaster - That's some good info. I haven't spritzed yet, but I'm going to try it on my next smoke. Today I didn't even soak the chips, just added more every hour. A 30 min soak and then drain the water would probably nail it. Thanks for that info. I hate opening the door. My first smoke I...

    Second Smoke, First Using 3-2-1

    With all the people around by they time it was all done I didn't get a chance to snap any more photos. Needless to say they turned out great. A few things I picked up from this smoke with the MES. First, I think I'll do 3-1.5-1.5.Second, meat selection is everything. I had some Costco ribs and...

    Second Smoke, First Using 3-2-1

Threw in a splash of apple juice/bourbon mix with the tinfoil wrap. Here is a photo of the ribs prior to cooking and after the first 3...
