Looks great Wes. Have to call it a PDS though (Purty Drum Smoker).

Pork butt (shoulder) and 7-bone beef chuck roast are both easy. Cook 'em, shred 'em, optionally add some sauce and serve 'em on rolls. Both are very forgiving of cooking errors, I personally feel that 7-bone chuck is more forgiving due to the fact that the cooking method diverges into almost an unbasted but sealed roasting for the last two hours or so (at least the way I do it, it does), but that's just my opinion. Spare ribs are also easy and a shorter cook. I believe that, outside of Texas, it's traditional to break in the smoker with pork...
