I got my friend's dad's old smoker since he bought a new one. I've never used one before. I'm really excited, but tell me what to do.
Don't use instant charcoal, but instead buy a Weber chimney for lighting the coals.
Meat, wood, simple rubs, low and slow cooking, and beer. Oh, and always try to buy natural meat vs. enhanced flavored meats. I like to control the amount of salt/sodium in my food. For example, with Smithfield pork products (ribs, butts, etc), you would want to buy the red label as opposed to the blue label. For ribs, Lowes generally carries the red label whereas Harris Teeter carries the blue.
