I had an opportunity to purchase a Lang at a significant discount price a few days ago. I thought long and hard about it, and after discussing it with my wife (who gave me the green light), I decided against it. The Lang is a brute, to be sure. I guess I'm getting used to this "old school" Pecos...
seems like it would work to keep the temp stable and to get faster temp recovery after opening the chamber, much like a pizza stone works in your oven. I would think you would want to place it as close as possible to the fire box...
Boston and St Louis
The butt was on for about 7 hrs, foiled for 2, then wrapped in blanket and in cooler overnight. Pulled perfection.
The ribs I did for 3-1-1 and they came out really nice.
I think I have a better grasp of temp control now. I set the stack at about an inch or so open and leave...
If you ever find yourself in the NW Atlanta area, look up Martin's Restaurants. They make the best fast food biscuits that I've tasted. The large chicken filet biscuit is amazing.
All of the Rocky Mountain states seem to have it going on with canned micros...I love me some Big Sky brew from Missoula. Moose Drool and Trout Slayer, among others. Walk into a convenience store in Montana or Idaho and you'll see a wall of canned local beers. It can be hard to find Bud or...
The chickens came out perfectly. One had dry rub jerk seasoning, and the other was a wet jerk seasoning from a jar. Both were juicy, spicy and wonderful. But the real star of the show was the tail end of a beef tenderloin that I had marinated overnight in that bottled teriaki sesame sauce with...
Yep, I coated the entire interior with pam before I seasoned it (no meat). Not the exterior. I keep a can of high temp black BBQ Rustolem spray paint if I see any issues on the outside of the grill.
Fire management: working on it. I think the Maverick thermo will help, but I think it will...
I searched for a Pecos owner's thread but found only one, and that was mostly about temp issues and other grills. Since I had a few folks at Academy Sports tell me that the Pecos is their number one seller by far, I thought I'd start a thread on them to see what mods other owners have done and...
I was looking at the Oklahoma Joe Highland grill at Walmart for like $270. It looks pretty good for the money...as a starter horizontal coal smoker. It looks like a smaller version of the OK Joe Longhorn. But it ain't no Lang...
Long time lurker, finally joining in to add my $.02
Been cooking here in Live Oak, FL for about 7 years on my old Brinkmann smoke'n pit and cut my teeth on the old smoke'n grill. Mostly babybacks and butts with a dry rub smoked over coal with wet mesquite chips because the wife loves mesquite...
