Bark
Unfortunately it got so hectic with the kids and wife pics took a backseat but here’s a pick of the money muscle after I dipped It in juice, you can see the bark in the background on the butt. I’ll say the Bark was just as pronounced as any offset I’ve used but was incredibly juicy. The bark wasn’t mushy like I would associate with a water pan, it seems to be the best of both worlds right now. So far I’m thrilled and it ran like a dream.

Perfect bark, exactly what I was curious about that is outstanding!
We kicked around the idea of ordering one of these in a certified 72 unit last year, and I still want one but need to come up with a way to handle the waste water and pressurized supply for winter use. Thanks for the pic Matt, look forward to hearing more as you get to spend time with it.

Congrats and love the look of the cooker. At the end of the cook, how do you dispose of the water? Is there extensive clean up involved after water removal?

Cleanup
Cleanup was easy, I have a large drain right by the smoker so I rolled it over and opened up the valve. I cooked on the top rack with a pan on the second so the water wouldn’t be filthy, opened up the valve and then drained it in a couple minutes, wiped water pan down and done. Maybe a five minute cleanup.

Bark
Honestly the bark looked and had the exact same texture as the SF and the Jambo Backyard that I’ve owned. It surprised me because I expected less and was prepared to adjust but I ran a simple rub of killer hog the bbq rub plus coarse pepper and kosher salt. If I would have gone pure Texas style it would have been like black grit sandpaper bark which I love but I’m prepping for comps and that mahogany is the move.

Comparison
I haven’t had the Hunsaker very long but the biggest difference aside from the actual cookers would be the stickburner flavor. The Can is awesome, just different. Hard to replace the flavor from a clean fire with sticks and a huge part of the MMS I believe is how great the airflow is. Very different than I expected and how you can create temp zones based on where you place your fire. Definitely will still use the can but I’m in love with the mms

Congrats Matt! Seeing your excitement and pics takes me back to the excitement I had several years ago when my MMS-48 was delivered. And the cool thing is that even after having for a good bit I still love it and love the food that comes off of if.
