    Free wood swap

    What's the cost of shipping a half cord of hickory to Grand Rapids?? :)

    What is your favorite wood to smoke with?

    I consider hickory and pecan the same wood, so either of those for heat, and apple or cherry for flavor! I do like the mellow flavor of white oak, but just not as much as the hickory/pecan.

    My Little Lang

    It will be a while, but for $2,000 you can't beat the price on a new one! The funny thing is that you rarely come across a used Lang for sale. Here is a pic of my garage, and a pic of my next smoker!

    Question about my smoker

    On a different note, what kind of charcoal are you using? It seems like you are generating a large amount of ash during a cook. My Lang only produces about a large coffee can full of ash during a 12-14 hour cook. However, my cooker isn't as large as yours, and I pretty much only burn sticks.

    My Little Lang

    I started that way, now I regularly use both the Lang and the BSKD. I didn't have a clue as to how many people crave real Q. The only reason I bought the 60 over the 84 is that is the largest smoker that I could store in my garage, as I have too many toys! However, the model 60 is the perfect...

    My Little Lang

    Cheech, I love my Lang 60, and when I replace it, it will be with an 84 Deluxe with chargriller. The pros are that it is a great smoker which wins a lot of comps, and is extremely even cooking with the reverse flow design. I believe that this is the best smoker for the price. The cons are...

    It looks cool, but there is an awful lot of thick white smoke!

    Baby backs done too fast!

    I use the Nu-Temp with two remotes. A great tool, and I can hardly imagine smoking without it. The base will accept signals from up to three remotes, and has both high and low alarms.

    I cant get the bark black

    Dave, I foil at 165, and bring to 195 before removing from the cooker. I then place in a cooler with a towel on top, and let sit for 1 to 2 hours. The meat will just fall apart! Give it a try.

    How can I test how hot my smoker gets?

    What Scott said! Also, you can drill a hole through a block of wood that you can reuse if you like.

    All Nighter

    Just something to think about, but when I started using the minion method, I was using the old Kingsford, not the new stuff. The new stuff lights much quicker and hotter, so I mostly use it in my kettle. I do use a mixture of K and lump in my BSKD, but my basket facilitates the slower burn...

    So I found out I'm clueless

    Half the fun of smoking is figuring out and perfecting the use of your equipment! Nothing is better than that cook when it all comes together the way it should! All of the issues you are having, we have experienced at one time or another, so sit back and enjoy your new obsession...

    "OTBS"

    OK guys, you really blindsided me with this one! I have not spent any time in this forum, and did not even know what the OTBS was until I recieved a PM from Dutch! I am truly honored, and hope to live up to your standards. Also, thanks for the kind words, and Ice, I owe you one! ;) Sincerely,

    With the price of steel continuing to rise....

    Ha Ha! Bad kid on the Simpsons laugh... How do you do that in German? Seriously, we still have scars from them bastages. But unless you are Bill Gates, with W. Buffet giving you all his cash, I guess we will all owe someone!

    With the price of steel continuing to rise....

    Kinda know how you feel! I almost pulled the trigger on a new F150 supercrew, as I would really like a pickup that'll carry three kids. However, no matter how I did the math, I just couldn't stomach a new car payment. My little Ranger has only 40,000 miles, and its paid off. On top of that...
