Looking really good. Moving very fast. Keep it up.

Very cool build. What are the dimensions of that tank? The grease drain is a very good idea. It will save so much clean up time.

Good stuff! Your going to love it.

Very interesting. I've been using my ugly drum a lot for these smaller cooks but once this corona virus deal is over and I use my GF I will do more testing. I will borrow my cousins maverick and use my maverick and compare with the BBQ guru and analyze the crap out of everything. I will share my fin...

Any updates on this? This also happens to me but I usually don't get the opportunity to fully load it. When I do use all the shelves I use the variance to my advantage. Thicker cuts at the bottom rack. I have noticed that when I heat it up a long time in advance I get less variance. I am going to tr...

Looks great. Good job.

Wow. That is a huge intake. You may want to put a K&N filter on that bad boy. Just kidding.

I have done several long cooks with the basket I made but I use Royoal Oak Lump charcoal. Last time I did a brisket and pork butt. Started on a Friday night 10pm and put the food on at 10:30pm and in the morning about 7:00am wrapped and it was done by noon. Never had to add fuel and have about a 1/4...

That looks awesome and clean.

It finally stopped raining and I could finally get you some Q view. I had some issues with only having 2 gun barrels but fixed that. Here are the remaining pictures that are long over due. This project was really fun and it did not take too much time. It took me longer to wait for a nice weekend to ...

Yea it is a pretty good deal especially if you know how to restore it (weld & grind). It doesn't even look that bad.

Looks awesome.

That is so awesome!!! Great work

and the wheel mount plates.

More Progress...





All that is left now is the lid.

Mine is an open lid barrel. The picture was of the bottom where the intakes go. But it looks like you got it figured out

Well guys I built a mini GF last year and now I need something a little bit more portable for smaller cooks. I plan on building a 55gal UDS with 3ea 1" intakes and putting the racks and fire baffles per the attached image. Does anyone have any comments on my fire baffle placement? Or the second cook...

Wow. That looks awesome.

Looks good. I wish i lived in a more rural area like that to burn my drum instead of having to pay someone to sandblast.

That is one cool project. I was wondering about your exhaust stack as well? Keep us updated.

That smoker looks amazing and those ribs look incredible. Good job.

That is a Beaut! Awesome machine. Now time for some Q.

That looks awesome.

I used Ultra High Heat Rust-Oleum paint. I thought you didn't need a primer for this paint. I used prep-sol and cleaned the metal really well before painting. The weird thing is that it is only when grease hits it. It just completely disintegrates it. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rust-Oleum-Specialty...

I changed the pictures to a different hosting service. So hopefully everyone can see.
