Looking to learn also

[ed in jax]

Not sure if geo location is important, but I am in Jacksonville, FL.  I've had a Brunsfield smoaker now for a couple of years and have not used it in 1-1/2 years.  (Pardon my ignorance, but a grill with a smoker box on the end of it) I love smoaked flavor foods but have had bad luck getting the right touch.  The meat has come out like rubber, overcooked and undercooked.  I've used soaked chunks, dry chunks and don't know the difference other than wet and not wet.  I've been able to grill the hell out of steaks, rib roasts, chicken and all the other meats.  I have found great rubs on this site but when I used the smoker, disaster strikes.  I had a small upright tube looking one about 5 years ago and smoaked a turkey and it came out perfect.  Now I feel I have a good smoaker but lack the talent to go pro in my own home.   HELP!

If I can get a beginners lesson I would appreciate it.
