Bought, off Amazon, a MES 30 with the "cold smoker" attachment. First cook I totally ruined, flavor wise, a bone in turkey breast. Juicy and so pretty you could take a picture of it but it was inedible. I am now gun shy using the thing honesty. Hoping I can get a little help as to where I went wrong.
Used the "cold smoker" attachment and put in about 2 cups of Pecan pellets. I only left the heat element on the "cold smoker" on for 10-15 minutes, enough to generate visible smoke. Cooked the main unit to 275 and pulled the turkey breast at an internal of 165. Perfectly cooked but inedible.
Where did I go wrong?
