Welcome smokerman.
Don't hesitate to jump in with a question or suggestion any time, any topic. No one bites here (O.K. so they gnaw on the bones a bit from time to time) except for a little ribbin'. Now that I got the puns out.....

I have a digital 6 rack. The first piece of advice I can give you is Have FUN. The next suggestion is more specific to the digital itself. The oven temperature set point, and the oven temperature reading are not usually the air temperature the meat will be experiencing. Use a seperate digital thermometer placed near the meat to gage what the real cook temperature is. Your results will be much closer in times, temps and results to that which is posted here.

Welcome Smokerman, You might think about some chicken as well (vent well opened). Chicken takes on the smokeflavors very nicely and does not take a long time. Enjoy your smoker and dont be a stranger on the forum.
