Ok, I have to say first that I have had an AMNPS tube for quite a while but never had pellets to try it out. Finally found some pellets at a Rural King which I never knew we had around until last week. Wasn't sure how it would work but decided to just do it and see what happens.
I have a cookshack smokette but didn't have time to test it out and see if it would stay lit or not so I used my Weber Q and layed it on the bottom strattled above the drip tray. Layed the cheese on each side so it wasn't directly above the tube. There is only about 3 inches from top of tube to the grate. I layed a few foil straps on grate since I didn't have a cooling rack to sit them on (didn't want black all over cheese).
Filled the tube with some pecan pellets and let it roll. Smoked for 2 hours and it looks and smells great. I'd say it got just a tad warm but acceptable for circumstances and test run. It is now wrapped and in fridge to rest. Almost forgot, outside temp was probably about 50 deg.
