    High heat grommets and first real cook

    First question is: I ordered off Ebay some silicon high heat grommets so that I can insert probes through them. They got here and I would need about 10 barrel thicknesses to hold them snug in the hole. Does anyone have a link or source for high heat grommets that will fit perfectly for the...

    Smoking a Thanksgiving turkey

    Hey guys, I'm not new to smoking but just finished my first UDS smoker a couple of weeks ago and have only cooked a couple of things in it. I am planning on smoking a Turkey (15-18lb) for Thanksgiving. I have my own rub and prep methods, I just haven't cooked in this thing long enough to learn...

    Finished my UDS smoker last night

    JamieLamb, I feel your pain man.... I tore mind down and removed the 1/2" tubes and drilled out and replaced both tubes with 30" tall 1" tubes and 1|" ball valves. And yeah, the cost was almost 3 times that of the 1/2" tubes and valves but anyhow, painted the new ones, drilled out the barrel...

    Finished my UDS smoker last night

    That just has to be the problem.... It just drifted back down to 175* and I removed the lid again and let the briquettes burn back up to red again, put the lid back on and the temps went up to 250*..... I may just ditch the 2 - 1/2" tubes and go with 2 - 1" tubes with ball valves and give that a...

    Finished my UDS smoker last night

    Well thanks Jay6896..... And I took your advice and went and bought an 8lb bag of briquettes and lit it up for it's first trial run but now I've got questions. Not knowing any more about this other than a little reading I've done on the forum, I poured the entire bag into my basket and saved out...

    Finished my UDS smoker last night

    It's been a labor of love for the past 3 weeks when I've had the spare time here and there but I finally finished everything and got it put together last night... Pretty proud of how it turned out. The paint scheme is in honor of all Law Enforcement Officers with the "Thin Blue Line" signifying...

    I burned 10 pallets through it and the hard part was getting the burnt paint and scorching off the outside. The first 2/3 of the inside sanded down pretty easily, the bottom third and barrel end was not fun trying to wedge myself in the top to get inside it deep enough to reach. Shot the first...
