    What electric smoker do I get?

    Thank you too Sarge! Rick, I use Windows Movie Maker to edit my videos. There are more elaborate programs out there but this one is free to download if your running Windows as your OPS. It does all I need for the production of decent videos. It allows you to add captions, insert music, add...

    What electric smoker do I get?

    Thanks for the kind words Rick! I don't want to take myself too seriously and while your taking the video nerves cause you to say things you don't catch until you review it. You watch and then roll your eyes not believing you just said that! lol My favorite "goof" was when I said, "the materials...

    My Youtube Video of Identifying a MES 30 GEN II

    I was happy with the output of smoke using the internal chip pan. However I plan on purchasing the Masterbuilt Cold Smoke Generator and will be doing some follow up video work on set-up and smoke output once it arrives. I'll be posting links to any future videos in the forum.

    My Youtube Video of Identifying a MES 30 GEN II

    I had a warm day here in Southwest Ohio so I took the new MES 30 GEN II out on the patio to do it's seasoning run. I wanted to create a video showing the differences in the GEN I and GEN II as I was a little confused myself and I hope this may help others. I also added a few comments from my...

    Newbie Reaching Out on a MB 30 + Cold Smoker Unit or maybe a Iron Cheff Unit?

    WOW! Big shout out to Foamheart! I just spoke to a MB CS agent about a discount for buying factory direct. I mentioned I was on the forum and that seem to crack the door open! She quoted me the $29.99 price + shipping. She even calculated the shipping cost to Ohio for me. I told her I was just...

    Ink, your the first I've read to make negative comments about MB CS. Here I've read mostly nuetral to positive comments on their CS and a fellow on youtube did a 3 part video documentory on his dealings with them. I'll post a link should anyone care to view:

    About to Order a Whole Hog - Advice on Cuts

    Not a problem Mule. They state on their site that they do not cure and that hams and sides are fresh and can be turned into sausage if the customer so desires. Naturally I'm going to use the fresh hams & sides!

    Newbie Reaching Out on a MB 30 + Cold Smoker Unit or maybe a Iron Cheff Unit?

    Here are a couple of reasons I'm going with the MB Cold Smoke Generator with my MB 30G2. First, I believe that the CSG would allow the MB 30G2 to "breath" better and possibly help with the air flow within the unit. Now that you've seen the CSG in the video you can see whay I'm thinking that way...

    About to Order a Whole Hog - Advice on Cuts

    I just purchased my first smoker (Jan/2015) and I'm excited about getting into smoking. I am purchasing a whole hog from a local meat processor/butcher with my tax return. I've already been in contact with the owner and he told me that we would discuss cuts when I make the order. This is a...

    Newbie Reaching Out on a MB 30 + Cold Smoker Unit or maybe a Iron Cheff Unit?

    I appriciate your input susieqz concerning the "need" of the MB Cold Smoke Unit. It's not that I think I need it but in fact it is the route I desire to go. There are some things I plan on doing as I climb the "ranks" in smokin food so there will be times that I will run the smoke generator...

    Rick, I thought I would bring this back over to this thread as the topic on the other one was about the Maverick Thermometer and I don't want to be accused of ! lol Here is a youtube video of the MB Cold Smoke Generator. This is not a indepth video but shows how much smoke it puts out.

    Newbie Reaching Out on a MB 30 + Cold Smoker Unit or maybe a Iron Cheff Unit?

    I have my MB 30 GEN 2 sitting here in the living room (like a trophy! lol) waiting for a warmer day to do the seasoning cook. Looking at it I've considered the air flow problems that have been reported for this model. Not being a design engineer I ask the question of how much does the drain hole...
