    MES 40 Not Heating...

    I'll have to see if I have access to that at the back...isn't that the one that some do not have an access panel for?

    MES 40 Not Heating...

    How do I bypass that thermal sensor? PAS, can you make that a link? or give me one?

    MES 40 Not Heating...

    I have already redone the connections at the heating element once about 2 years ago. Now, once again, the panel on the smoker shows it is always heating, but the temp stays below 90. The remote will show it "heating" for about 15 seconds then "heating" goes off. I have not had a chance to open...

    Backstrap stuffed with boudain and green onion...couple of questions!

    I got the IT up to 150 and wrapped it in foil and left in the smoker to keep warm since we still have an hour before we eat! I did leave the smoker door open to let it cool down before putting the wrapped backstrap back in to sit.

    Backstrap stuffed with boudain and green onion...couple of questions!

    Here is the backstrap before going onto the smoker. One pic straight out of the wrapper and another after I added some seasoning caled Juicy Pig...

    Backstrap stuffed with boudain and green onion...couple of questions!

    I will get some pics when I unwrap it and put it on... I have no idea if the boudain is precooked or not. I assume it is pork.

    Backstrap stuffed with boudain and green onion...couple of questions!

    I have half a backstrap the processor stuffed with boudain and green onion and wrapped in bacon. I am wanting to smoke it on my MES 40 with some apple wood. To what IT should I smoke? How long should I expect it to get there smoking at 250 degrees? Backstrap weighs no more than about two pounds!

    MES in cold temps?

    Good deal! Thanks!  It is under my south facing porch so should be out of the wind.

    MES in cold temps?

    We are doing our Christmas tomorrow and I was planning on smoking a spiral cut ham in the morning. Lows in the morning are supposed to be in the low 20's...will my MES 40 have trouble maintaining temperature?

    Last minute baby backs!

    I pulled the ribs off the smoker with an IT of about 193 which was about 3 hours and 20 minutes into it. They sat for about an hour. Juicy and perfect! My wife and daughter are sucking on the bare bones!
