first butt on a lang for a party

[garyt]

Tomorrow will be the first pulled pork smoke on the Lang, I am worried about running out of wood, rain. etc. also screwing up. 30 in laws coming over for party. They are driving 60 to200 miles to be here, the first time I cooked on it temp management wasn't fun but the ribs were great. wish me luck pictures to fallow. I don't think I will sleep well tonight.

"30 in laws coming over for a party"

Holy macaroni! How many wives do you have?

All went well, temperature was a lot easier to control, Put a hook on the lower lip as BBQ RON suggested so as not to cut the wires off my therm probes. spritzed with a mix of pineapple syrup left over from a double batch of Dutch's beans and rum, gave them a nice shiny glaze.





Now maybe I can relax a little the next time I am cooking for more than the wife and kids on this thing

Thanks for the advice

See, All that worrying for nothing, I told you it would be a piece of cake.

Man they look great! Just a tip if I may. Once temp is reached close one fire box damper completely and just use one open about 1/2 inch. Control heat from there with size of fire. 3 splits an hour should do it.

Looks awesome

After a couple smokes you'll know exactly how she likes to run and you won't even think about it

Thanks, That is the kind of info I need, no info with it and couldn't find anything on the website other than cleaning and seasoning. Any other tips please let me know. It is a lot easier than trial and error.

Everything looks great and you did all thats worring but then if we didn't worry things wouldn't come out so well. Great Job Gary

You'll do great. Kudos will be flowing. The rain? Pshaw!!! Get the pop-up out (or borrow one ) and just smile as they say "WOW"

And if you so happen to goof-up, turn it around and pretend it was suppose to be that way

.

Have fun and SMOKE HAPPY
