    Chip in the wood tray

    Well, I can only speak to my smoker.. a 30" Masterbuilt analog.  So I only have a small half inch vent hole in the top right, on the back panel.

    Chip in the wood tray

    20-25 minutes doesn't sound right at all. I have a 30" MES, base model nothing special. I use wood chips in the provided tray (until I get around to the mailbox mod) and a full tray will last me 2-3 hours easily with a medium heat, around 225-250 degrees.

    Hey all.  I'm Jason from mid-MIchigan; I just received a new MES 30 (I think gen 2) for Christmas... been wanting a smoker for a while, so my brother and mother went and surprised me with one.  I've already got it seasoned, and even without any vent mods (I usually never can leave anything...
