Hey Al, I've been cooking on a Lang 48 for 2 years now and its an absolute joy to run. I cook my brisket fat side up on the left side of the cook chamber with the point facing the firebox. Do you recommend that positioning or do you think the point should be facing the other direction, away from the firebox? I've always had good results. I'm just curious if maybe I should turn it so the point is opposite the firebox. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated. Happy New Year.
If that is what works for you I wouldn’t change a thing. For me I put the point end facing away from the firebox.
Al
