Bump. Help me Americans 

What do you want to know about it? It's just some the temperature and timing it. What smoker did you get?

Bought one about 6 weeks ago. Definitely haven't used it enough yet to give advice, but so far we love it and everything we've grilled has tasted great. 

If you want to clean it. You need to buy a Shop Vac too! Trust me. 

Do some memphis dry rub style st. louis cut ribs.

First you will want to dry brine your ribs. Put the same amount of salt on the ribs like you would if you’re eating them at the table. Let them sit overnight or at least 6 hours in the fridge so the salt can penetrate the meat.

Next mix equal parts paprika, granulated onion, granulated garlic, and black pepper. Usually 2 teaspoons of each will do 1 rack of ribs. If the ribs are dry you can use mustard or water to add moisture to help the rub stick. Sprinkle this on your ribs to make a medium coating where you can still see some of the meat underneath the seasoning.

Finally put them in your smoker for 3-4 hours @ 275. I like to check them with a toothpick, i like the toothpick to slide in a with a little more resistance than butter. You can pick how tough or soft you like your ribs.

What grill did you get? Mine is being delivered tomorrow.

I quoted those 2 posts because something I have not done yet is truly smoke.

Have cooked and it is always good.

However, I have yet to taste a true smoke taste and have been wondering what do you need to do.

Tips for smoking some items ? Above 2 posts are great and let me know I have just been “cooking”. not smoking.

You just need a source of wood smoke, ideally you would use a smoker, but you can use a regular grill too if you get a product like the amazing tube. You stuff the tube full of wood pellets that you can buy anywhere grill supplies are sold and light it to produce smoke. A-Maze-N Smoker Tube Review - YouTube Shows the tube in action.
