Another point about hot/cold spots on reverse flows is to make sure the unit is level, front to back.

Trust me on this. I did not think it made that big of a difference until I tried it.

The trailer hitch end too far down will make the smoke/heat harder to flow from back to front and then to back again.

The trailer hitch end too far up will cause the smoke/heat to stall in the front.

If you don't believe me, try it. It doesn't take but about 30 minutes to see the difference.

Great point, this is true with my pit as well. I always carry a level with me.

The Lang has to be Level or canted slightly down toward the tongue both for heat distribution and to prevent Grease fires.

Nope.

They dont suck.
Love my Lang, but for price reference and slightly different features, see bubbagrills.net for another well made reverse-flow offset. Around here you'll always see 3 or 4 of Bubba's and a Lang or two at every competition.

i've been looking at the lang 36's myself for my backyard.

I've had mine for 5-6 months and LOVE it. The thing is a cooking beast as far as backyard models go.

Here's a few pics for comparison...

Cooking on the Lang 48 - 10 butts comfortably

Lang 60 - 16 butts

Lang 60 - 24 butts

The Lang 84 - wasn't full (18 butts, 30 wings, 2 racks and a brisket)

I have a Lang 60 deluxe and love it! It does eat wood that is for sure, but food quality is amazing! Thinking of putting a temp controller on it. Has anybody had any experience with this? Looking at a Guru or a QMaster Senior with a 50CFM fan. Any help would be appreciated.

Any help would be great. Thanks!

You'd probably have better luck creating a new thread instead of bumping up this old one.
