    Rumaki

    i guess i won't really be able to call mine rumaki ... just chicken livers wrapped in bacon.  i love bacon and liver so the water chestnuts will be one less step for me to deal with.  i also thought of loading the chicken livers into portobello mushrooms and laying the bacon on top and then...

    REALLY NICE, NO BENDING, GARDEN BOXES

    Re-season my MES when i put in the new Wood Chip Retro Kit?

    mine actually fit better than the old one.  go figure.  the loading chute on mine works better now ... maybe the factory tray wasn't lined up just right.

    Re-season my MES when i put in the new Wood Chip Retro Kit?

    super easy!  three screws and a phillips screwdriver ... well six screws if you count the ones you have to take out.  the edges are really sharp on both the old and new one ... even with being extra careful in only took a couple of minutes.

    Re-season my MES when i put in the new Wood Chip Retro Kit?

    well i went ahead and re-seasoned it.  i turned it on for half an hour to see if it smelled funny once it heated up and it did so i re-seasoned it just in case.  i'm smoking a turkey friday and don't want any funky odor to it.

    Hi from Sharon in Brooksville, Florida!

    ronrude - thanks for that info on the traeger pellets ... i really appreciate it.  i actually do like the intense smoke flavor it gave my chicken ... but i like intense flavors ... many don't.  i started to do that ... with big foil pan ... but then i thought it might interfere with smoke flow...

    Re-season my MES when i put in the new Wood Chip Retro Kit?

    hello everybody. i've only used my masterbuilt 40 twice ... seasoned it once before i used it.  i just washed the new wood chip parts in the sink, but they still have a little oil on them.  I'm getting ready to switch the parts out ... my question is.  Should i season the smoker again before i...

    My Easter line-up

    just read the creamed corn thread .. OMG i want some now!  if you put jalapenos in it and then put the skillet into the smoker for a few hours will it be smoky tasting or ruin it?  anyone tried it? bacon grease are good.  i have tons of different rendered fats in the freezer ... if it kills me...

    Hi from Sharon in Brooksville, Florida!

    jckdanls07 - it doesn't really disclose the ingredients on the bag.  i just went and read all the fine print and it says '100% virgin hardwood' ... so they make you think if it says mesquite then it's 100% mesquite.  i will make sure to read the fine print in the future .. and research more...
