    I didn't have great success with pellets, I used a torch to get them going, blew them out until I achieved a nice cherry, but I found they didn't really work well. Wood chips are a lot more work, but I had more success with them when I smoked some ribs yesterday.

    Thanks again Gary, you've been a tremendous help! One last question, I read somewhere online that some people light their pellets on fire with a torch, and once they catch fire you blow them out and place them in the tray before starting your smoke, do you do this as well?

    Wow, thank you so very much Gary! I really appreciate your help! I actually bought a BBQ at Barbque Country over the summer and the guys there are very knowledgeable. I'll make a trip out there this week before my Smoker arrives. Would you say the BBQer's Delight pellets are on par with the...

    Thanks for tyre advice, will the 5 x 8 fit int the MES 40? Also, how many pellets do you put in at a time? Would you put them in according to weight or just a handful?

    Hi John, I'm a new member here, and new to smoking, I have just purchased a MES 40 (Digital electric) and I was told you were the expert on MES. I have a quick question, I was wondering if A) I would be able to just toss pellets in the wood chip trey rather than wood chips, or would that not...

    May be a stupid question, but does anyone know if I would just be able to toss a pellet in the wood chip tray? Or would the heat not distribute evenly to allow it to burn properly?

I live in Edmonton, but go to some friends cabins often so I wanted something I...

    Thanks for all your help Gary, I ended up getting the 30" I posted above, it's being delivered on Friday, I'm hoping to try her out on Friday night. However I wonder if I can use that pellet tray with model I bought. Do you think I would?

    For the Masterbuilt 20077515 I posted above, i can't seem to find information on how long the chips would last/need to be replaced, would anyone have an idea about this?

    Thanks Sarge, I'm a little skeptical with the control unit and thermostat. I've been doing some research on this one at Amazon, looks pretty good.

    Thank you Sarge, I definitely love the look and rating/reviews I've read. the price doesn't bother me too much, however the shipping costs getting it to Canada with the duties is a little much for me. I've been looking in to this MES 30 that Gary recommended, it has great reviews and is...

    Hi Gary, I'm also in Alberta. Do you find this an easy smoker to use? I'm a beginner, only used a smoker once. I just looked it up and it's a great price. Just to confirm, you are able too control the exact temperature? Also that's a great idea to use a welding blanket as a cover to keep the...
