    5x8 AMNPS does not fit beside the element my MES30

    The water pan sits directly below the bottom rack. I might try removing it though, since I do not put water in it. Thanks for the idea.

    5x8 AMNPS does not fit beside the element my MES30

    I had read that the 5x8 tray had been designed to fit beside the element on the MES30. I bought a MES30 and ordered the 5x8 tray. Masterbuilt  has made a change to the element on the MES 30, and the tray no longer fits beside the element. I put it on the lowest rack to smoke a Pork Butt on rack...

    AMNPS ADVICE

    I bought a MES 30 and ordered the 5x8 tray. They have made a change to the element on the new MES 30, and the tray no longer fits beside the element.

    Mailbox mod burnt up, need new one - suggestions pls?

    I don't remember where I saw it, but I kept the picture. After looking at it again, he is using a cheaper grill, as it has four legs. I have a Smokey Joe and want to  try this myself. .

    I saw a picture of one recently that used a Weber Smokey Joe grill, they taped the duct on the lid air vent.

    Meat too small to smoke?

    I got a vacuum sealer so I could portion out things I smoke in individual meals, then seal and freeze. I just had some ribs tonight that I cooked over a month ago. I did the same with a Pork Butt I smoked two weeks ago.

    Just got my MES 30 - version 2?

    Rick, I got mine from Amazon warehouse deals for $135 shipped. Evidently someone had bought it and returned it unopened. Still had the factory tape and wrapping on everything. Bearcarver, thanks for the points.

    Oohhh, those step by steps are going to come in handy, thanks Bearcarver. I'll be trying that Boston Butt  soon. My baby backs were very good, glad to have the first smoke come out so well.

    Just got my MES 30 - version 2?

    Found out it's a V 2.5 the AMNPS will go on the lower shelf. Seasoned this morning. I have some ribs smoking now, trying out the 2-2-1 method.
