    Brisket Fat Cap Up or Down?

    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...

    New Lang just delivered

    How's the new Lang working out? I have the exact same smoker as you minus the warming racks. Been smoking away for 2 years. Best purchase ever.

    Help Smoking Brisket

    I agree with Texan. I always have a 5-6 pound flat in the freezer that I get from Target. They're perfect for a Saturday when you're short on time and you have brisket on the brain. With temps between 250 and 265 I can get them done under 8 hours, probably closer to 6.5 hours. Nothing beats...

    Rec for new Stick Burner

    Go with the Lang. Especially if you can pick it up. I have a Lang 48 with a few upgrades. I upgraded to stainless steel grates, wagon cart, and tires. The price went up to $2400. Best money ever spent. Lang cookers are amazing!!

    WSM 18.5 with Auber control

    I've smoked on a 22" for years and never found the need to buy one. I've done overnight cooks and it performed just fine on it's own. As an example, I threw a brisket on at 11:00pm with the temp @ 250° and at 8:00am the next morning it was 225°. Now I can't tell you what the temps were...

    V shaped fire management basket

    Picked mine up from LSG. It does work quite well meaning that it channels the coal bed into a nice even pile, enabling a fresh split to fully ignite quicker than usual. Fuel consumption is marginally better. The big benefit to me is I spend less time waiting for the split to fully ignite and...

    Cooking Some Ribs, Have A Question

    I agree with third eye. I wrap according to look, not time. I never used to wrap ribs but started with foil and recently graduated to butcher's paper. I'll never wrap in foil again. You get a better bark when using paper. Just for kicks, I'll smoke a few baby backs without wrapping them...

    Pin wheel dampers on my Lang

    Appreciate the update. My Lang is only 2 years old so I haven't had any issues yet. I will know what to do if It happens to mine. Just curious, who told you how to fix the problem ?

    Need Pointers on Hot snd Fast Brisket in Offset Smoker

    I'm right there with radio guy. Smoker runs between 265- 280°. I wrapped in butcher paper the last 2 cooks and I'll never go back to foil. I've seen posts that refer to hot and fast cooking temps closer to 350°. Sorry, that's not for me. Fat side up or down? Good luck sorting that out...

    Sunday brisket

    Sunday brisket

    Smoked a brisket flat from Costco today. Turned out pretty damn good. Took it to 165° then wrapped in butcher paper. Probe tender at 202°. Total of 9 hours on the smoker. Let it rest for just 30 minutes. Company was growing restless. Usually rest for 90 minutes. Take a look:

    Char-broil bullet vs Weber smokey mountain

    I grill all my chicken on the WSM 22 using 1 full lit chimney plus a chunk of wood, no water pan. Chicken comes out better this way vs. my Lang.
