Hey Lone Star Grillz vertical offset stickburner guys !!!
I have some questions. The wife has been politely nudging me towards a 24x30 offset vert. (w/ warmer box and other stuff) instead of the patio 60 I have been pretty set on. I slipped up and told her about smaller the footprint w/ larger capacity ..... :doh:
Let's be clear,. she has given me the green light. :mrgreen: Lang 84, ...Shirley Custom,.... LSG 84 trailer..... etc.. So she is coming from a happy place,.. not a "grrrrr !" place. And I have drooled,.... and drooled,... and drooled over all of them. The vertical came up because I was actually reigning myself back and considering a patio smoker instead of a wonderfully awesome trailer rig. :twitch:
Anyways,... let me try to stay on point here. I wonder about airflow. I wonder how these fantastic offset verticals do when loaded to the gills. I wonder about the temp. variation from the bottom verses up by the stacks. Likewise from side to side. Has anyone had any real issues with these cookers? When fully loaded are meats charring up on the lower shelves since they are basically heat baffles ? Or is the thing running well ? I am aware that gaps between meats on shelves would help,... but is that all you need? My whole "thing" is moving that airflow. Is this cooker capable? Or should I stick to horizontal offsets. If I had one it would run all sticks, small fire, lots of flow....No charcoal, no baskets.... I have a uds I never use already. ( I still love her :icon_smile_tongue I need some exp. LSG guy advice. :loco:
Thanks brothers,
Kevin
