This is my story,
About 5 or 6 years ago our son gave us a bradley 4 rack digital smoker, my reaction was, wow how cool, umm what am I going to do with that? as I don't cook at all. So I finally tried it out with not good results, way too much smoke flavor, so the smoker just sat until a few months ago I decided to try it again. I then read a lot of things in various forums including this one, got some tips and recipies and went for it. I started with a chuck roast which turned out good, and since I have done a few other things, back ribs, chicken,pork butt, and more chuck roast. The wife and I love this thing!!

There are more but try those out before getting into things like enclosures for storing your Bradley outdoors, mods to your smoker, etc. I'm sure someone will be along to help you with those if you're interested.
Take some before/after pics of your efforts and post them if you're so inclined. People around here like to see pics.
