Nice rig you got going there. Let's see an entire picture of it.
I might have a picture or three of it. I call it "Good Time Charlie" cause I picked it up in Charleston, SC. It hold 10 pork butts, or 8 half pans on the bottom shelf and then there is a second shorter shelf that holds ribs and such. It has served me pretty good in that it has gotten me on the stage for roughly a third of the competitions I've participated in.
I've tried a lot of woods, but have settled on the basics. For flavor,,, oak. I want nice clean red or white oak firewood like you burn in the fireplace. For color, I will mix in a little bit of cherry for the first couple of hours. I'll burn some hickory or pecan also,,, but oak is what I prefer.

Looks like a Lang. Don't see the Lang plaque. Defintely a reverse flow
Custom Pits LLC,,, "Tailgater" model. 5/16" thick cooking chamber, get it hot and it hold temps well. Firebox is where they took shortcuts,,, too thin. But it works,,, so what can you say.
