    Lang 48 or 60

    I have the 84. I cooked 24 slabs of ribs and a pile of fatties yesterday for the opening of archery deer season here in Georgia. wish i would have bought the 108 or perhaps the dual 84... my smoker was FULL of meat. David S

    If you could only eat 3oz. of meat?

    in 1979, i lost 115 lbs. a bit hard for me. in 1993, i lost 110 lbs. not near as hard. both were very expensive "diets". Read tag line... and good luck! David-S

    Happy Mothers Day!

    my Son always sends me a "Happy Mothers Day" card. I got custody of him as an infant, 26 yrs ago. He's 27 now and never forgets his dear ole "Dad-Mom" or "Mom-Dad". It means a lot to me. Happy Mothers Day! David-S

    School 1958 vs. School 2008

    what we see today is reality. Far be it for me to stand in the way of "progress". I realize that this post is in the "jokes" forum, but it's not a joke...not to me. Not as an American. We as a country, not ALL persons however, are a lazy work force. Sure, we show up for work, I'm...

    1st Smoke on New Lang 84 Deluxe, Q-view

    5 hours total cook time. As for the wood, 5-6 sticks to get to temp, and 1 every 30-40 minutes thereafter. 10-12" diameter wood, quartered, 18-20" in length. Of course, the weather could play a role there. It was 75 here Sunday. I use a small propane torch to lite fires, so about 30 mins to...

    1st Smoke on New Lang 84 Deluxe, Q-view

    I'm just learning qview... fewer pics next time, sorry, and I'll make them smaller. The wood used was oak for a good coal bed and topped off with hickory. This weekend, I'll use oak and pecan while cooking another case of baby backs and a few fattys. Thanks, David-S

    Thanks for all of the help w/qview. I'm not as smart as some of my friends think... lol This was the first of many smokes to come using the Lang 84 Deluxe. I really like the smoker. I chose baby backs and I'm glad I did. Some of the best I've ever cooked. I'll let the pics tell the rest of...

    New Lang 84 Deluxe w/gas option

    Hi Smok'n Steve, Lang no longer uses "tanks" for his newer smokers. He rolls his own 1/4" steel, which gives a bit more cooking space, approximately 12". A true 84x30 on the model84, less the distance for the reverse flow as you know. With the gas option, there are 3-50k btu burners (2 on the...
