Just bought pic related Masterbuilt 30" electric smoker.

Looking for tips, tricks, or just general advice.

Anyone else bbq or smoke meat/other food?

Plan on using this for outdoor get togethers. Maybe even smoke some jerky for backpacking.

This isnt exaclty /out/ related but I posted this on /ck/ and was just a bunch of people saying "put meat it, smoke, eat, done" and complaining that it isn't a real smoker, or saying how compressed wood pellets are dangerous (my smoker doesn't even use them).
