    Smoked cheese

    Nice day here in Minnesota today so I thought I'd try cold smoking some cheese. My MES 30 won't go below 100 so I thought I would try one of my old gas grills. As you can see it's rather crude but when a smoker gets it in there head they want something, well you do what ya gotta do. Lit one...

    batch of jerky

    My first batch of beef jerky on my new MES 30. Small batch to start with. Also was the very first time using my new AMNPS. Had to take it out and re light it once. Quickly figured out that you need to pull the chip holder out part way and keep the top vent wide open. Maintained 135*-145* for...

    new to cheese smoking

    I'm going to attempt my first time smoking cheese this weekend. Couple questions.  Can you over smoke cheese? After the cheese is removed from the smoker, can it be vac packed right away or should it sit in the fridge in say a baggie? Best chips or pellets for cheese smoking? Thanks in advance.

I just added the AMNPS5x8 pellet box and now i got the extra smoke i needed. Only mistake i made was taking the sticks to work with me. I...

    new stuffer

    Hi all, Getting ready to pull the trigger on buying a new 5 LB LEM stuffer. I never make more than 5 -10 lbs. of sticks or sausage at a time. I have read numerous reviews on the LEMs but want the opinions of the users that really know and that would be the people of SMF. The stainless steel...

    more smoke

    Didn't soak the chips, had the top vent wide open, but I'll try pulling the chip loader out a little and adding chips during warm up. Nice to have options and thanks very much for the advice and links Tropics & Sota D. I will be smoking again this weekend.
