I'll have to try that recipe... Tongs. Tongs work for everything on the BBQ. Never touch the food on the grill with anything until it's done, whether grilling, bbq'ing or smoking! Example; you should be able to flip a burger with a kabob skewer before flipping it! When the meat releases naturally under the heat, time to turn. Tongs rule, there's even wooden tongs out there for a purist.

That was quite a good education on smoking, I'll dig up my ez ribs and post as soon as I find it.
