Smoked wings are maybe my favorite thing to make.

Love my 800.

I had been dissatisfied with my country style pork recently, so I tried something different. I only let them smoke for about 2.5 hours, then put them in a lasagna tray with a mixture of Moppin' sauce and Franklin's pork BBQ sauce. Covered with foil and let them go another 6 hours. Best thing I have done in a while.

Smoke a turkey. I love smoked turkey.

Throw on some mushrooms and some sort of tomatoes. Those would make a great tasting pasta sauce and/or soup. Smoke some onions too.

I smoked some jerky Friday. It's quick, easy and good.

Pork belly is cheap & you can do a lot with it

Plate ribs (beef), pork or beef burnt ends, duck, chicken, al pastor, birria

smoked cream cheese
bacon wrapped oreos <-- don't knock it till ya try it
bacon wrapped dates
baked beans.
over the top chili

Not sure if you did this or not, but first thing you need to do is run it empty before you put anything else in there. Instructions should tell you how. My Masterbuilt is on the lower end and is a box smoker that I manually feed chips through the bottom. It told me to run it at 275 for 3 hours to burn off any factory residue.

When you want to start cooking, a pork belly/burnt ends is probably the easier to try out. Lots of difference recipes and they're fairly foolproof. Invest in a good meat thermometer that you can poke at and get instant readings. We have a dual probe setup that stay in the smoker and have a separate receiver to tell us the temperatures of both probes. It can be set to where it notifies you when it reaches a specific temperature on either probe.

Tri-Tip. Quick smoke to 125-130 (depending on your preferred doneness), then a hard sear on the grill. Best thing I've ever smoked.

Chicken is super simple- I've even smoked boneless/skinless breasts with good success. I thought for sure they would be hockey pucks.

Pork loin is great- smoke then slice for sandwiches or thicker sliced like chops

Cream cheese is delicious- highly recommend Everything Bagel Seasoning
