When i got my Lang 36 i had it delivered by a guy with a half ton pickup and he was pulling a trailer for the other one he was delivering that day (another 36). it cost me $400 (Winston Salem NC). they roll easy despite the weight. Congratulations, you will get something you will never regret buying!
what will you need? well i have bought many things since getting a stick burner...
you need a pile of wood and more importantly a source for it (supplier or something)
a fire extinguisher...don't need one until
you have to have one!
some
elbow length heat gloves for food handling and some heat res gloves for putting sticks on the fire (
Amazon)
a cleaning brush... i know the steam method but it helps to hit the racks with a brush a bit before steaming them
a stove shovel (for ash) and fire poker, the whole fireplace set is handy really
a cover (charbroil 72" fits pretty good on the 36) or tarp
a drip bucket for grease ( i use small metal pail)
garden hose to spray the smoker ( if you don't have one or a long one that will reach)
few tips...
i use remote therm with mine but i don't use the port hose i just easily put the wires under the door to the cook chamber and it works fine...when its raining i cover the base with a foil pan or something to keep it dry
i light mine with charcoal and a couple lighter cubes then add wood
spray the FB before every other use with cooking spray to protect the paint and keep it from rusting
there are two lang smoker channels on YouTube for smoker tips and general info
Happy Smoking,
