    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Harv. I'm a relatively new member to this forum. Since I posted some pictures the rules say the post may be delayed until they can determine it is appropriate. I assume that's why its not there. Since your spending more on a smoker look closely at the pit boss in your comparison to determine...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Harv   My friend who has the catering business has used the ABS pit boss rotisserie model and loved it and highly recommends it.  I would have loved to have one but I don't need all the space plus if Im remembering right it was about $1200 dollars more and I just couldn't justify it for what Im...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Harv      I finally bought a smoker.  It will be delivered on this Tues.  After a lot of research and talking to lots of people I narrowed it down  to two smokers..... the Lang patio 36 vs the American Barbecue Systems All-Star.   I bought the ABS All-Star with ten inch wheels.  It is made here...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Harv     Your direct experience with the langs is invaluable in determining which smoker to buy. Have you found a place that makes covers for Langs?  If I get one Im thinking about removable smoke stack to make it easier to cover. I talked to Ben Lang today and he said a removable smoke stack...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Hey Harv    I hope others that have a lang 36 will chime in here on the un even heat problem mentioned above.  I have heard no complaints to date........but if there are problems I certainly would like to hear about them.  I have also never heard of anyone having to modify a lang 36 to make it...

    Stainless steel cooking grates vs standard lang cooking grates

    I live in Kansas City.  I plan to keep it covered in the winter. During good weather will smoke on it at least once a month or more.  Some one told me to spray the grates with pam before I put it away for the winter.

    Stainless steel cooking grates vs standard lang cooking grates

    I'm buying a lang 36 patio smoker. To up grade to stainless steel greats cost $195. I'm considering doing this for ease of cleaning and no rust. Do the standard grates have a problem with rust and are they easy to clean. Are You happy with std grates or do you wish you would have up graded to...

    Lang Owners

    Icemanrrc    Im ordering a lang patio 36.  Sounds like you don't think its worth it to buy a guru?????   Did you have Lang drill the hole in your firebox when you ordered your smoker?

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Harv.  A complete guru ( model DigiQDX2) runs about $300.  Google BBQ guru and you can read about it on their web site.  I don't know if I will get one to start off or not.  Everyone talks about how easy a Lang maintains temp.  The guru adapter ( bulkhead induce mounting tube) for a Lang cost...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Hey Harv, my name is Mike.  The up grade to stainless cost  $195.  Im getting them for ease of cleaning, longevity and in Kansas City I will not be smoking during the winter most likely.  My current  grate  rusts some  during this down period and I want to avoid that.  I plan now on the...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    I will ask Lang where they recommend the hole being drilled. I was thinking of having them do it too.  Thanks for your comments.   I also was thinking about the Maverick ET 732.   What did you think about ordering the lang with removable smoke stack for ease of covering.  They said it will not...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Thanks for the info on covers.  I decided to order my lang 36 with a removable smoke stack.  this is a no cost option and I was told they do it often  and it will not leak or impact efficiency.  This will make it much easier to find a generic cover  which is a ton cheaper then having one made.  ...

    Lang Smokers vs. other Top of The Line Smokers

    Is your SQ 36 a good smoker?  What did you like and not like about it.  What does a Lang do better to the point you want to sell your SQ 36 and buy a lang?  Im still am interested in the meadow creek and see lots of good comments about the sq 36.   Is the SQ 36 smoker box heavy enough steel?  Im...
