used Kingsford "blue" with apple wood chunks.

got my UDS temp to 225 with heat deflector and small water pan.

placed ribs on smoker at 1pm, closed the lid, and maintained 210-240

thank you all!

I picked up the smoker from a local builder out of Conroe.

Charlie did a great job on my custom build.

I've added a 2nd ball valve to help regulate temps a little better.
