HELP! I have a smoker and don't know how to use it!

OK. Here's the deal. I got a smoker for Christmas. But the deal is that I have no idea how to use it. I know there are some excellent smokers on the Planet, so here is my plea for help.

Description of smoker here

Basically, I know nothing about smoking meats. I'm looking for advice from you guys as basically a beginners guide to smoking. I know the recipe supercenter is out there, but as far as how to smoke something, I have no clue.

As far as what kinds of meat to use, how long to cook it for, what to season it with, what kind of wood chips to use, and what to do to keep it from drying out. As well as any tips for me to get started.

Any recipes that would be good for beginners would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

(I already know that antifreeze makes an excellent marinade)

Any rub'll do ya. Seriously, as long as you get the salt and sugar right, it's hard to get the rub wrong.

What about the rest of the details? What wood chips (snicker) did you use? How long and at what temp did you smoke it at? Did you baste? How did it pull?

I used hickory chips. I cooked it at 200 for 3 hours and then 225 for another 2. I didn't use any baste, and I just cut it off and ate it. I was too hungry to pull it!!!

It probably doesn't compare to the Q you guys put together, but it was pretty damn good for what I usually eat.

Yup. Like I said earlier, 90 percent of your "failures" will still be pretty damn good eats.

Hey fellers, I'm getting ready to do some ribs tomorrow. I've never done them and am looking for some advice.

I was going to make a dry rub and put it on tonight,

I was going to use a cup or so of Brown Sugar
Some Season Salt
Paprika
Pepper
garlic powder
onion powder
and some crushed red pepper flakes

Is there anything else I should add?
Should I baste some sauce on there?
If so what kind (I live in BFE, so they don't have a lot of good stuff)?
How long should I leave them on there? I'm assuimg 225...
They are pork spare ribs, is there anything different from babybacks?

Sorry for the 20Q, but I'm a n00b...

Appreciate any help you guys could provide. Thanks in Advance!

1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup non-iodized table salt
1/8 cup brown sugar, dried
4 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon Accent (MSG)
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

I forgot to mention.......Put the brown sugar in a low temp oven on a cookie sheet for 20 minutes or so to let it dry out. That way you won't get those clumps and it will sprinkle evenly. This recipe is part of a rib cooking technique that is immodestly titled Best Ribs in the Universe. I must admit that they were damn good. Here's the source...

Yeah... I'd be wary of the Accent. I try to keep MSG away from anything I make.
