Welcome from Savannah, Ga and congrats on your Green Mountain Grill purchase.

 I would recommend the following:
First, run it for about an hour at 350 to burn of any manufacturing oils.
Second, is seasoning.  Spray a light coating of Canola Oi and load of the rack with bacon.  Run at 225 for awhile and than 300.
Third: do some cooking for instance a 10 lb. Boston Butt is about the most forgiving meat to smoke. 
A couple to three hours at 170 for smoke.  Up the temp to 225 until done which is about 205 degrees. 
Takes about 1 1/2 hours per pound. 
Next one foil at 160 internal until internal temperature of 205 and see which one you like best as both ways are good.

Or roast a chicken first and you will find many recipes here and on the internet.

Thanks for the tips!

Here's another NC welcome and some background on pellet cooking:

As to what to cook first, I agree with the pork butt suggestion.  They're very forgiving and a great way to learn the basics of smoking a chunk of critter well enough that you'll be ready to learn even more.
