Sometimes all it takes is a nudge in the right direction.

For Maryland native Casey Murray, that gentle prodding came in the form of an old friend asking him if he’d want to borrow his coveted Lang Model 60, one behemoth of a mobile smoker big enough to brown 200 pounds of meat and then some.

“I can put more on it if I need to,” says Murray, who opened his Smoke Ring BBQ food truck on the property of Apocalypse Ale Works in Forest earlier this year. “And it’s not just putting something in the oven for a few minutes; it’s eight to 12 hours of cooking and monitoring the temperature. You’re actually building a fire. Everything about it is fun.”

With a thick, auburn-colored beard that stretches nearly a foot below his chinny-chin-chin, Murray might look like a guy who’d labor over a balmy smoker for hours on end, but he actually is more of a computer whiz, having worked in Liberty University’s IT department since 2005.
