Question for the board here.
I'd like to have a cooker that would let me cook for 250 people or so. Obviously, that's a pretty big cooker.
But there are plenty of times, when the group I'll cook for would be more like 25 or 35 people.
For you folks with big cookers, am I right in thinking it's pretty inefficient to cook a small amount of meat on a huge cooker?
This has me thinking that maybe something like a Lang Twin 84 might be the ticket. http://pigroast.com/model84t.htm
If I'm understanding that model right, it's basically two 84 units on one trailer. It doesn't appear that they're connected. Which is what I'd want I think. If I just wanted to use 1 unit, I could. But if it's a big crowd, I could fire up both.
I guess the only real downside is having to tend two separate fires but that's not a huge deal.
Am I thinking right there? Anyone have a similar situation needing the ability to cook for both 35 and 250?
Anyone have experience with the Lang Twins?
Much thanks.
