Those UDS are hard to beat ... that way you have something to cook with while you're building the next rig...
And on the eighth day God created barbecue …. because he DOES love us and he wants us to be happy.
Current smokers: Egor (trailered RF) and Easybake (tabletop pellet drive)
Welcome there are many people here that can help you,I personally do not have a uds but it is on my list, i build reverse flow smokers but I personally am in the dark on drums
Come to think of it. A buddy of mine is building a big trailer mounted cooker (that he's been slacking on) with all the bells and whistles, that's not quite done. So he asked me last week to use my UDS for a cook he has this weekend.
Thanks guys. I acquired 3 closed-top drums from the shop at the ambulance company I work for. Those are becoming UDS's for myself and two buddies. I thought I would have those done before building the big trailer pit, but a tank fell into my lap and we just burned out the big tank last night after cutting the lid our of it. Guess the UDS's will have to wait. We have an old utility trailer that the big pit will go on. Now to hit the hardware store for all of the internals.
