Vermont Country Store and BBQ

please be patient, 1st post and may take a bit of explaining. TIA. Recently my wife and I found out that our dear friend died in VT. We were able to come up here and comfort and help his wife. We are afforded the luxury of being able to stay and help for several months. This is the gig you wonderful cajun food people. (i graduated from lsu) so i know. He died at 55 and the business was doing well so he purchased a huge smoker and bbq set up. note: would be perfect for lsu tailgate. anyways, i walk into taking over the books and finances of the store (no problem), but now being from south LA they want me to start smoking and using the pits to draw more customers in. my management job takes up 4-5 hours six days a week and so i do have a few hours to do this before lunch and dinner time. i do have help, but let me tell you its not what were used to. so, anyone who feels giving this Easter if you could hit me up with some ideas on smoking and BBQ on this commercial setup, i'll hook you up if you ever get up this way.
again, thanks in advance, thanks for accepting me into TD and as always Geaux Tigers. The Woodpecker P.S. they specifically want rubs and sauces, things i don't think i can obtain up here. thanks again to whoever or if anyone reads this. The Woodpecker
