    It worked perfectly yesterday tomorrow I will be smoking a pork butt with it. I even played with adjusting the temperature with the magnets and it rose and fell just as it should have. Simple and efficient so far Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    My uds build

    OK so I cleaned the inside even more and oiled it down. We finished up this morning and fire up drum #1. Success it is holding temperature somewhere between 225 and 300. What is the best way to get an accurate temp reading from my uds. Is a long probe sufficient or should I get a remote...

    My first smoker build, a couple questions for those who have gone before:)

    So I had a random idea this morning. I performed a few searches and could not find an example of this so I could be way in left field. I have and old red river grill. Could this grill be converted into a fire box? The grill itself is decent gauge steel. The size seems right. It has upper and...
