I use the water tray when I do big meat like brisket and worry it will dry out. I do line the tray with foil. When I do baby backs I cut the racks in half and do three racks at a time. Babybacks cook a lot quicker and it is easy to get enough smoke on them. Just go with 250 degrees for an hour, wrap them if you want, go another hour, then unwrap them. You can finish them on the propane grill and baste with bbq sauce or whatever. I never sprits them with apple juice or any of that. The rub and the bbq sauce is plenty. A little hotter and a little faster not 3-2-1. The standard gas or electric oven produces great babybacks. Smoked is better.

Thanks so much for this video. It's great to have a thorough how to. I'm English and, although our cuisine has improved 😅, we know nothing about smoking. So, would you say it's possible to cook, say, pork shoulder or ribs late at night and just refill the wood couple of times before going to bed then just leave it with the timer on and a water bath in place? That's pretty convenient if it works 😊

Hi Michael- it really depends what you are cooking and what time you want to eat the next day. People do this fairly often with Brisket, maybe not so much the other meats you mentioned that don’t take as long. I would practice a few times with the smoker and the type of meat you are cooking before letting it go all night unattended. However this is by far the easiest type of smoker to do this on.

Thank you for your demonstration on this unit sir, very helpful. I am looking at purchasing this same unit, but because of my cook times (8-12) hours, it seems so labor intensive to keep placing chips in the smoker. Do you think there would be a way to maximize the chip volume? I am drying meat. Still shopping to see if one exists where you can actually go to sleep and finish up in morning.

If you mean like the kind that come on Bradley Smokers, I'd say probably not without completely overhauling the smoker and doing some serious cutting and welding. It's really meant to smoke with wood chips. An easier route would be to try the Masterbuilt Slow Smoker Attachment. Here is the link: amzn.to/4cz393g It gives you a longer continuous smoke by continuously burning wood chips (using gravity) on an external heat source and then pushing the smoke in through the existing wood chip loading hole. I demo it in our cold smoked cheese video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pKlhma9euM7LdIk.html Can also be used for hot smoking. Just set the smoker to whatever temp you want. Hope that helps!

Great video. First time smoker here. How do you know when to add more wood chips while the meat is smoking?
@madbackyard
@madbackyard Жыл бұрын
Thank you! Your initial load of wood chips will make smoke for about 20-30 minutes. You will be able to see less and less come out of the top vent once the chips have all smoldered out. At that point you can add another load of chips of you want. Go easy with how much smoke you use the first time you cook something, you can easily oversmoke the food and ruin the taste. I would only use one load with chicken, fish or turkey. Maybe 2 loads with ribs, pork, and beef until you get used to your smoker. Most smoke flavor is absorbed during the first part of the cook anyways while the meat is still somewhat cold, so you don't need to keep adding smoke throughout the entire cooking process by any means to get smoky flavor. Hope that helps, thanks for watching!

Hi Chris- you certainly can use it without wood chips if you really wish to not have any smoke flavor at all. Keep in mind this type of smoker cooks like an electric oven though, and since it maxes out at 275°F, it's not really grilling, more just like if you were using your oven.

Hey when would I use masterbuilt water pan? Every time? Certain foods? I’m planning on making a steak and corn on cob. Also I’m following your pre-seasoning tips. Did I need to add water?
@madbackyard
@madbackyard Жыл бұрын
I fill the water pan for almost everything except skin on chicken where I’m trying to keep the skin crispy. It helps stabilize the temp, keeps the cooking chamber moist, and also actually helps the smoke flavor “stick” a little more to the meat. For a smoked steak I would season it, put it back in the fridge for an hour or so, then put it in the smoker at 225 degrees, straight from the refrigerator so it’s still cold. Smoke it with some hickory or mesquite wood chips until it’s about 80-90 degrees internal temp, this won’t take very long, maybe 30 minutes, and then finish it in a really hot cast iron pan with butter for a few minutes in each side until it’s at your desired doneness. A thick ribeye would likely work the best. Thanks for watching!

Thanks Anthony- I’m wondering if your heating element is not working properly if you are having both those problems at the same time. Assuming the door is closed and the vent is opened at least partially…If you are putting dry wood chips in the chip loader and turning it to dump them out, after you have already preheated the smoker, there’s no reason you shouldn’t be making smoke. Maybe try using a separate temperature probe to make sure the inside is actually getting up to temperature.

Going with brisket right off the bat, I like it!! Plan on cooking times to be longer than a pellet grill, even when using the same temperature. Opening the door has a much bigger impact on letting heat out so try to minimize by using probes. Go easy on the amount of wood chips you use until you get used to how much smoke flavor they add. Although you should be safe with brisket you can much more easily over smoke chicken and fish in electric than on a pellet. Good luck, let us know how it turns out!

Hi Wayne- make sure the empty metal chip tray is in place inside the smoker. Also, after you push the chip loader in with the wood chips in it, don't forget to turn it a full 180 degrees clockwise so that the chips fall out into the tray. After that, it should take about 6-7 minutes to start making smoke. Keep the top vent about half way open. Hope that helps!

"Your initial load of wood chips will create smoke for 20 to 30 minutes" So, does that mean chips need to be re-added about the same amount of time?, Or, about twice an hour?, Or six times for a three hour smoke? (depending on item?) You need to be more clear on this point. UPDATE: Was my first time using this Masterbuilt smoker and it does help to soak the chips in water for about 20-30 minutes first, as it helps them last longer and be more efficient. I added chips about once an hour for 3 to 5 hour smoke time for one pork rib rack.and worked just fine. Tip: I also added one broken charcoal briquette to my wood chips and added a nice flavor.

@madbackyard
@madbackyard 4 ай бұрын
@@kevincarter7342 You can do more if you want on Pork Butt, just depends how much smoke flavor you like. A common misperception when smoking food low and slow is that you need to add smoke flavor throughout the entire cook. Meat actually absorbs the most smoke flavor right in the beginning while it is still cold. Adding a water pan for moisture in the beginning also helps the smoke "stick" to meat and will get you more smoke flavor faster as well. As the cook progresses and the meat gets hotter, it will absorb less and less smoke flavor anyways. And once you wrap, it obviously won't absorb any at that point. So you can do more loads if you want multiple additional hours of smoke. Just know it IS very possible to oversmoke your food in an electric smoker pretty easily so best to go easy if you don't have much experience yet with how the food comes out in it. Best of luck, let us know it comes out for you!

@madbackyard Thanks for the tips. I've always had Masterbuilt smokers. This is my third. Started out with a portable, electric dial, and now my first digital. I've always wanted to set and somewhat forget. Haha. About how long do you cook before you wrap it? I've typically done my cook until the pork is 165, and then wrap it and let it get 203 and then take it out. So usually my cook is 80% complete.

$300 USD is about right, sometimes you can find a little cheaper on sale. $1400 seems really high for a pit boss vertical pellet smoker unless it has to do with shipping to where you are. This one is $660 on amazon here in the states and its one of the larger models. amzn.to/45O2RT7

ONLY 20-30 MIN SMOKINH EACH LOAD??? Oh deer... I think i will just go with the pit boss vertical pro 4, with 65lb pellet hopper, thats 30hours of smoking before reloading vs 20-30 min on this masterbuilt 🙈

Yeah, it's one downside to masterbuilt electric smokers. They make smoke quickly but only in small batches. One option in the slow smoker attachment: amzn.to/3RNKRCQ Can also use for cold smoking with the smoker turned off. I use it in this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pb6ijaiHm7i-mZs.html and this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pKlhma9euM7LdIk.html if you want to check it out.
