Where are you located? I might be willing to trade a Ugly Drum Smoker for a couple things.

The easiest heat management I've found is to put only 5 or 6 lit coals into an basket of unlit. Wood under the coals or in the basket is fine. As the unit comes up to 170-180f I close down one inlet completely and the other most of the way. You may also have to close down the exhaust. Anyways...

I’ve been looking at building an ugly drum smoker. Does anyone cook on them that can give me some reviews. I’ve watched several videos on YouTube but was just wanting some opinions from folks on the forum. Thanks look forward to hearing some reviews.

This is what I was thinking. If I wanted a tedious experience, I would still be running my ugly drum smoker. To each their own though.

...For those who have not heard of Barrel House, it is very similar to the Pit Barrel Cooker.Basically we are talking a man made UDS ( Ugly drum smoker) that allows you to smoke meats by either hanging or setting the meat on a fixed rack. I digging around I learned that Barrel House and Pit...

Why not an Ugly Drum Smoker? Just curious. Chris

There is more than enough air to fuel a charcoal fire through 2 each 1/2" pipe nipples in a 55 gallon drum known as an UDS (ugly drum smoker)... The designer of your smoker, probably never used it... It's for looks only... Once you get your smoker totally air tight, think about installing a...

Thanks, I think I'll get these ordered. Are you finding the 4" big enough? I smoke a turkey so I like to be able to get up to 350, and down to 225 for things like ribs. The vents appear to have the following free area when fully open: 4"-4.0 sq in, 6"-9.25sqin, 8"-16.25sqin. I spent this...

Just say'in? That is ridiculous, you can buy a whole pellet smoker for that price. The best thing about a UDS is their simplicity and the ability to be used anywhere without the need of power. It amazes me at some of the so called improvements/mods that some people come up with on these...

...to the site. I started out on a cheap offset smoker. I’ve learned a lot on it and still use it on occasion. I recently built an Ugly Drum Smoker. It was a pretty easy build, and very cheap. They are very efficient, and can hold temps for a long time without much babysitting. So far I’ve...

Thats a pretty great idea! In order to do that, I assume I would have to close off the current air inlets somehow. Wonder if I can get a piece Metal, cut it to shape(2) and somehow mount one to each air inlet to close it off allowing only the ball valves to be the air baffles??

You mentioned having tools. Build a UDS or ugly drum smoker. I've had 2 and they were great.

I would use this on my Homemade Ugly Drum Smoker that I built with my sons. They enjoy helping me smoke any type of meat and are really getting into the process. I live in Indiana, USA
