The Man's Christmas present was a starter smoker. I wasn't here so just ordered it for him. Well I've been home for a few weeks now and he decided to give it the maiden voyage!

Pork ribs, yellow peppers and asparagus.  It was a lot of fun to make. The ribs flavour was delish...very spicy with the rub we made up. A bit tougher then we are used to *IP fall off the bone ribbies* The peppers and asparagus had an incredible smokey flavour. This is an adventure we will enjoy :)

My first smoker was the same design as that. (40 + some years ago)  They work very well.  Looks like it did well for you too.  Properly smoked ribs have some tooth 'tug" to them. Falling off the bone is overcooked... at least BBQ judges think so.  What you like to do at home for yourself is what matters though.  edit: PS I like apple wood smoke with ribs.
