re: Looking for tips for someone new to using an electric smoker

I have both a BGE and a Masterbuilt electric smoker with an Amaze-n pellet tray. I use the electric for smoking chickens, homemade sausage, tasso, etc. I like to use the Amaze-n tray and would recommend it, but I don't know if the pellets or chips produce a better smoke. All I know is that I get good smoke from the pellets and its easy.
A tip for your first smoke - get a spray bottle and fill it with water. Use it to keep your meat moist on the outside (i.e. once the outside of your meat starts looking dry, give it a quick spray every 30-60m). That'll help the smoke vapor stick to the meat and develop a good bark or skin.
Another tip for ribs. Look up and follow the 3-2-1 method. I recommend St. Louis cut.

I have been doing this with apple juice.

I was planning on doing this with the slab of ribs I did this past weekend but once I realized we were out of foil I was in no shape to drive.
