I am a new owner of a MES. I've been lurking on this site for quite some time. I introduced myself in the new members area quite a while ago.
Anyways, as a newbie to the MES, if anybody has any helpful hints as far as what to do or what not to do, it would be very appreciated. I think I've picked up a few tips while reading the past couple months.
I have a question specific to the Masterbuilt smoker if somebody knows: must you use chips or pellets only? The reason for asking is that I have come across a possible supply of wood for smoking, but it is branches/limbs ranging from 1.5" to 6" in diameter. Can I split the larger ones and make my own chunks to use in my MES? Do I need chips? Is there a way for me to use this supply?
Thanks in advance. I look forward to becoming a contributor to this site with Q-view of my smokes.
