Lonestar offset

[joetee]

Well I ordered a lonestar offset smoker, 20x36. I won't get it until maybe December. This is killing me to have to wait so long.
I have purchased some pin oak and started splitting it, stacking it. Hopefully it will season out well for this spring.
Oh I'm so impatient.

Nice Wish I had a offset.

Anyone here with experience with a lonestar offset?

 

[Hawging It]

Quality smoker. Maybe it will arrive sooner!

 

[joetee]

I sure hope so.

 

[Fueling Around]

Congratulations.
No experience with a Lone Star.

I had a crappy Brinkmann offset that I bought intending only as a charcoal grill.
The offset lured me in to get beyond my Big Chief for smoking.
The rest is all smoke up the chimney

Congrats. I ordered a Horizon offset in June. Had one damaged in transit arrive last week. A replacement due in 2 weeks.

I got my LSG last December. It has to be the easiest thing to cook on i have ever used.

See my Avatar and you will recognize a 20 x42 LSG. I cook on it fairly often and find it to meet my needs very well. I do not cook for more than a dozen folks max at a time.

The quality of the fabrication is some of the best you will see. The performance of LSG's 20 series pits is what drew me to them to begin with and I have confirmed their claims are valid.

You will love your pit. Did you do any upgrades when you ordered it?

Yes I did. I ordered about everything they recommended. Let's see...
Fire management basket.
Probe ports, 2.
Brass drain valve.
Air controller port.
Main Chamber grilling grate incase I have a lot of burgers etc for a party.
Ash Rake and fire poker with Utensil storage rack.
Can't remember if there was anything else.
Oh yes. Extra door seal
High heat black touch up paint.
Pull handle.

I think that's sums it up. I though if I'm going to get a great and expensive smoker, I may as well go all in. LOL

I'm so excited. My first offset.

Wow--that has got to be the purdiest smoker I have EVER seen.

 

[ofelles]

Congrats. They make great products. I recieved my insulated cabinet from them in May. Love it.

 

[joetee]

I sure hope so.

Well it's being built an we speak.
Question:
What is the limits on temp in the offset stick burnout? Can it be taken to 450° without damage?

 

[flatbroke]

Sure enough can. I wouldn’t shoot your load at once but build it up to climax and enjoy the ride. Fire be pretty hot in the box if you aimed for broke out of the gate

 

[joetee]

Oh I'll be kind with it. I just was wondering how hot I can go before there is a problem just to be safe with the old girl.

 

[flatbroke]

I don’t have that model but my gauges were there. They peg at 500

 

[joetee]

Well I don't want to blister the paint etc. So I just want to be carful.
