I just received my #2 smoker last night. Seasoned it for 3 hours according to directions in box. I am now ready to smoke for the very first time. I have a 2.25lb pork sirloin tip roast that I picked up from Costco. It is seasoned and ready to go. Will you please provide some feedback, tips, advice ect... on how I should cook this roast. I have been reading a lot of advice from different members and not sure if I should put it on top rack, bottom rack, cooking time. Would like a nice bark on it. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you. :)

No doubt you will find great advice through on the forum, especially in the pork section. I would put the roast in the middle of the smoker and be sure to have a remote meat therm that you can use to check the internal temp of the roast. I am guessing that you will probably need 2 hours or so to reach your desired IT. I would recommend 2-3oz of wood for this smoke.

Any update? Sorry I missed your post yesterday - been tied up with my day (and night) job! Steve's dead-on. I will say that it's tough to smoke a roast that small - hard to get bark on something that only takes a couple of hours to cook. Might have to give it a little "reverse-sear" in a hot oven (500+) or on the grill!
