Since the first of the year I've been working on the road back east and needless to say haven't been around home to use my cooking & smoking gear. Hence not too active on S-M lately.
So what to do?? I convinced a coworker to purchase a smoker - I was pleasantly surprised he bought a MES 30 without any input from me. We tried a venison meatloaf last weekend for the initial trial and it turned out darn good.
So, I told him about fatties and decided to roll one up and try it in the MES. Standard fattie with salami, pepperoni, onions and mozzarella. A bit rough rolling it in my hotel room 1/2 kitchen without having a full set of utensils (especially scissors). But I got it done. I didn't have any spices besides S&P in my room so I did use a Hickory Mesquite rub at his place. Then to his house for the smoking part.
Turned out darn good - I really like this MES unit - easy to use and straight forward. Never used one before and I see why a lot of people on here like them. I have pretty commandeered the smoker from him at this point! Being away from home is tough but at least I can smoke something now & then!
Thanks for looking (my buddy thinks it strange I take food pic's so I snap these when he's not looking )
