    Default Smoker question


    Anyone with the master built electric smokers tried using the pellets instead of chip's?

    I went to the Masterbuilt website.
    Can I use wood chunks or pellets in my smoker?
    No. Masterbuilt smokers are designed to operate with the use of wood chips only.

    true cane, unless you use a pellet tray. i can load that tray and smoke for 12 hours with never opening the door or adding anything...

    I use chips in my masterbuilt.....i usually only have to refill my chip holder once....twice at the most.... and that is done without opening the door. Dont know if you guys know this or not but after 140 degree meat temp has been reached the meat will not take or absorb anymore smoke anyway. If you dont believe it....google it.

    David is correct. i generally fill my pellet tray for about 4-5 hours of smoke and put a boston butt on at 11 or 12 at night and don't worry about it til the next morning when i put my probe in it and monitor the IT from my den. anything over 4-5 hours of smoke can only make the bark bitter to taste..IMO

    James where do you place the tray to get it to burn.

    Get yourself an A Maze N Smoke Tube and use it instead of the wood chip tray. They work great and produce better smoke.
