I have Masterbuilt smoker. Get several different types of wood to try. Hickory and Apple are my favorites. There is a cook book called "Dadgum That' Good" that has some good recipes in it. You need to try the smoked mac and cheese, it's great.

Keep 2 things in mind.Low and Slow and if you're looking you ain't cooking.Cooking teps need to be from about 170{fish}to a max of 250{pork/chix}with 225 being optium most of the time.You are slow cooking/smoking not grilling.The Smoke Ring forum is an excellent source of info,there are some real gurus there.

  Smoked mac and cheese whats the world coming to gotta try it

Apple, Hickory and Mesquite are the most popular woods to use in a smoker.  If you can get some, Pecan wood is also very good!

A water pan is a good tool for keeping the smoker from drying stuff out.  A little beer in the water pan is a good thing
