    How many pork shoulder butts should I cook for 100 pulled pork sandwiches?

    See below photo for roughly the amount of pulled pork to be in each sandwich. My guess is 18-20 sandwiches per 8lb (raw weight) butt.

    My sausage isn't that juicy

    I did two things differently and they turned out great, really juicy, chopping board was all greasy when I sliced them. Not sure which worked or both, but I: 1. Lowered the temp to 225ish 2. Smoked 1 hour 3. Hung them in a loop (I have a Lang 84, just took out the top rack and used a pole to...

    Questions for Texans: Is Central Texas Barbecue and Hill Country Barbecue the same thing?

    Can Texas-German sausages be considered hill country barbecue? If you had to pick one types of sausage to best represent Texas barbecue as a whole, what would it be? What types of barbecue are common in South Texas?

    Cutting a pork shoulder butt in half or into quarters to take in more smoke

    I'm working with IBP pork shoulder on the heavier end. Last week I cut in half just to test and it turned out great. I'm using oak in an offset, it is the only wood in my area. Oak being as mild as it is, I'm thinking of cutting the butt into quarters and smoking, anyone ever try this? What was...

    Just fired up my Lang 84 Deluxe Kitchen for seasoning, seeking general advice

    I just finally fired up my Lang 84 for seasoning. I followed Ben Lang's instructions in his YouTube Video. I learned so much about the Lang just in this process even without any meat in the smoker yet. I'm looking for general advice and also answers to a few specific questions. Six splits of...

    Best temperature control device for Lang

    Whats the best temperature control device for a Lang 84? I'm looking for remote monitoring, chamber temperature status, meat temperature status. I know there is other talk on here about it but I wanted to see if there was anything new out as well. Thanks in advance. :biggrin:

    I'm thinking of driving a Lang across America instead of shipping it, secure places to park?

    I asked Lang for a quote from their preferred shipper, and I also asked for dimensions and weight so I could get quotes myself. They ended up just shipping it without my approval for shipping cost and I got a call from a what sounds like a freelance shipper asking for $1,200 cash up on delivery...

    I want to buy two smokers from Lang but they never answer my emails or calls.

    Thanks for the replies guys. The smoker will be shipped out of the country via the San Francisco, CA area. I was set on getting a Lang because they seem to be the biggest, most popular company for making the particular type of smoker, and I've seen it in action and tasted the results. I'm now...

    I want to buy two smokers from Lang but they never answer my emails or calls.

    I've tried contacting Lang many times via email over the past six months and also called and left a message without any reply. Is this normal for Lang? I'm looking to buy two smokers and they just don't seem to want my business for some reason. Anyone have similar experiences?
