Received master built gas smoker. Have read many tips on modifying and improving factory smoker. Have replaced factory temp gauge and added iron skillet with cover for smoking pan. Any last minute tips for first smoke tomorrow. Doing baby back ribs, following 221 method...tomorrow's outside temp around 38'f with little to know wind. Have perfected bb ribs on weber gg, new platform(smoker) has me little nervous.

Welcome to the site and congratulations on your new smoker. 

I don't have any experience with your model of gas smoker but if you have the ribs figured out on the Weber gasser you shouldn't have too much trouble.  Just watch your temps and check for done-ness.

Welcome to the board! You learn by trying. If something doesn't work out, adjust your method.

Ribs turned out perfect! Had only one flair up which came 40min in...foil covering wood chips that are in 8" cast iron skillet must have got knocked loose when putting skillet into smoker. Need to find better way to cover that skillet. Only problem is there are no leftovers....
Cheers
