    10lb shoudler ready to go... smoker broke

    That all looks good. It’s the control box. If I posted a picture you’d see and probably chuckle at the way I treated the smoker. I reached out to masterbuilt to see what a replacement costs. Maybe I’ll try that. Either way I gotta decided if I want to jump on the full pellet train or stick...

    10lb shoudler ready to go... smoker broke

    Hello

    Hello everyone. Found this site a couple weeks ago when researching smokers. Ended up with a MES 30 2.5 due to that QVC deal going on. Figured it wouldn't be a bad place to start.

    Need help deciding on a new MES 30"

    Hey. I found this site yesterday after the sale stopped for another version of the smoker. When I called this morning (about 11EST), I was told they had a few left but only in stainless steel. So maybe it depends on who you ask if you're still in search of one. But thanks for the info. Time to...
