Spilled water on the stupid heating element

Derek · 03-29-2010, 01:14 PM

I'm so farking CLUMSY!

Ok did a stupid thing, I split about 2 cups of water on the heating element and now it lost a quite of bit of heat!

Did I wrong the smoker?

Unplug it, throughly dry it (use a hair dryer if needed) and try again.

Oh... you can water your smoker... but trust me... it won't grow.

I hope it's okay.

It's Ok, thank god the smoker box was protecting it and it's at 200*f right and rising to 225!

I'm only going to smoke my pig's feet for 1 to 2 hours.

Depending on how the local company generates electricity, the MES may on a fundamental level actually be "Coal fired".

Glad your smoker is OK Derek!

Oh thanks bro, I'm glad it's ok too.

The smoker quickly got back up too 200*f,

But as of now I'm getting a BGE I've finally decided what model to get WOOHOO!

No more wishy washy for me made up my mind, And my folks decided to loan me the extra $500 dollars to get the small green egg, so I can take it in my car to comps.
