Mornin' and welcome,

The side racks are thin and they'll be ok.

The box of wood should have been labeled.
Give them a call at sales and they should be able to answer.

It is probably hickory.

For overall planning,you can think about 2 hrs/lb.[depending on how much door opening and the temp you cook at]

For a first cook,I'd pull it out by 200ï¿½internal,or whenever the bone feels loose.

While you are waiting on it,read the pork butt 101 and some of the archives on pork.
