    Can I foil and cooler spare ribs???

    Thanks for the replys guys. I will only need to foil them for about 1 1/2 hours. Safe zone shouldn't be an issue for such a short amout of time. As far as why, simple, not enough room in the inn.     I can only do 4 racks of spares in my MES which is the number I have to do to feed all these...

    Can I foil and cooler spare ribs???

    I'm having a big get together this weekend and some of my guests don't like ribs, so I'm going to do some smoked meatloaf as well. Problem is I cook my meatloaf at a higher temp and with different wood on an MES.   My question is, if I cook the ribs 3-2-1, is it ok to foil them and place in a...

    Brisket has stalled....but for how long?

    Ok, I moved the probe and actually dropped a degree?? The bark on this thing is awesome!! My plan was to foil it at 170 degrees. If I foil it now at 164, will that help or hurt getting it over the hump? It has been going since 6:30am so about 9.5 hours. Any suggestions?

    Brisket has stalled....but for how long?

    I'm cooking a 7.5lb brisket flat on my MES. Brisket rose nicely to 165 then stalled. Not a day goes by that I don't read this forum so I understand this is normal. However, this thing has been at 165 for about 5 hours. Is this normal?? I'm running on about 225 (MES temp), and my Maverick is...

Which temperature should I cook by, the 73's temp or the MES temp????? Somewhere in between?? Bearcarver, anyone, what do you guys go by as far as temps? Lot...

    Need some MES advice

    Couple of weeks ago I bought a 30" MES (old version) from Lowes. During seasoning, I noticed that the temps the MES were showing versus my ET73 were off by as much as 50 degrees. I moved the 73's probe around to various spots and still got 30-50 degree differences. Is this normal?? Any fixes...

    Houston, I may a problem....Help

    That's funny Nick, I'm actually a Miss. St. alumni. Graduated with a turfgrass degree. Grew up in Arkansas and love my Hogs though. Thanks for the replies. The bird is up to 120 degrees and the smoker is now close to 250 so I think I'm alright. Electric bill gonna be high because the element is...

    Houston, I may a problem....Help

    I bought a 30" MES last weekend and seasoned it. I found out my MES runs a little hot, about 25 degrees. Anyway, this morning I fired it up to the maximum of 275 and preheated to around 300..perfect. I opened the door to put the turkey in and of course lost a lot of heat, closed the door, and...
