Don't worry it isn't your fault or anything to do with what you're doing. It is the smoker. Bradley's being electric won't produce a smoke ring but you will get that awesome smoke flavor your looking for

The smoke rings is caused by nitric acid building up in the surface of meat, absorbed from the surface. This nitric acid is formed when nitrogen dioxide from wood COMBUSTION in smoke mixes with water in the meat
