    Pork shoulder Gmg pellet smoker

    I agree I don't like overpowering smoke either, maybe my grill is defective bc it doesn't even leave a noticeable ring at all if I smoke at 225 the whole time. This time I did 165 for 6 hours, 185 for 4, then finished at 225 in my oven bc I wrapped it. Save the pellets! Turned out swell. Thx...

    Pork shoulder Gmg pellet smoker

    Hoping for some opinions here. I've been smoking for a few years now on my Daniel Boone and love it. I have not however made a pork shoulder on it that has turned out as well as on my Mes. My Mes has died, may she rip. So my main question is, when smoking a butt, do you all run your pellet...

    Costco Butts!

    I probably should have specified, I pretty much do pulled pork with the bone-ins every time. Maybe I need to graduate to something else.

    Mes w pellet pro or comparable conversion

    The smoke daddy looks good. 125 for the big one isn't bad. Which one do you use and how long will it produce smoke? I didn't see a lot on the site about how it actually works. Can you explain the setup process for each time you use it? Is there any maintenance/upkeep? Do you have it mounted...

    The amazen is good, no question. I ought to be satisfied with that I suppose. I don't know why I always want to try something else. If anyone has an experience, I'm all ears

    Mes w pellet pro or comparable conversion

    I'd just need it for smoke. I wonder if those things are meant to provide enough heat to cook though. I like the electric aspect of the mes. Maybe it would be a mix of electric heat and wood generated heat. The amazen thing does a good job, but it's a bit of a hassle to setup when it's freezing...

    Mes w pellet pro or comparable conversion

    Hey guys, Been smoking with my mes 40 for a year now w the amazen pellet tray. Works good most of the time. In fact, just did a butt last night in chicagos sub zero temps. Held 220 pretty consistently. Anyways, I am by nature, a tinkerer and never satisfied. I though it'd be cool to try and...

    Pulled Pork in Mes

    Wow, 20 hours! Maybe I better out in on Saturday night then. Thanks for the info. I thinking I'm leaning toward the bark vs. the foil. I foiled the Brisket I just did and wasn't too happy with the bark. I can't use water with the amps right?

    MES Model Number Question

    Great, thanks for your reply and the link. I just wasn't sure why there were so many models out there. Maybe each store has its own model? Anyways, I can't wait to get this sucker out in the snow this weekend and see how she performs.
