Lang 108 vs Lang 84
Anyone here have a Lang 108 that also has or has previously had an 84?
I have an 84 and was looking to possibly upgrade to the 108. I was wondering that with the increased size is there much difference in wood consumption and temp control? I cook often at 350 for chicken and pork loins. Is there a problelm obtaining and maintaining these higher temps. I cook butts and briskets at 250-270. Are we talking about alot of extra wood to maintain this temp. (more than 1-2 sticks per hour)? thanks in advance for any help you can provide Gary

Don't know that answer personally or know anyone running a 108.
Possibly a call to Ben Lang tomorrow morning will help you. He's known to be near the phones in the morning.

I don't own anything near as complex as even a lang 48, but this thread has my attention. I didn't even know there was anything over 84.

Forrest (Florida Farmer) has Twin 108s on a 28' trailer.
I am sure he has feedback for you. I am giving him a heads up to catch this thread. TIM

I have a 84, a 96, and the twin 108....they all have the deluxe warmer boxes. All run pretty much exactly the same and use minimal wood.

Actually, the Langs are a very, very small part of Forrest's collection.
I think when he retires, he is gonna open a Cooker Museum As to Pics--Forrest is not a camera kinda guy--sorry. Damn fine cook too, both at comps and in the "real world". TIM
