    Question about different types of smokers.

    ...for all types of smoking...  Personally, I have 5 different smokers, I think ??   Each does certain things very well... An UDS, (ugly drum smoker) is probably the most versatile and inexpensive smoker there is, if you build it yourself...   Folks have won smoking competitions using them...

    Pit Barrel Cooker Question

    Good point.  Thanks for the links.  I'm in Fort Worth, TX.  Checking around, I found a place with new 55 gallon food grade steel drums for $35.  Close enough that I could pick it up my self.  I'll definitely take this into consideration.

    Hello all, I'm a new owner to a Louisiana pellet grill and am new to pellet smoking and grilling.   I love to grill, but the chilly North Dakota winters limit me to a few months a year.   In spite of this, I have about 6 grills that I use (two locations) and this is my second smoker, the first...

    Is there a way I can convert my smoker to be "legal" by the strict standards of BBQ competitions?

    I suggest you build a UDS (ugly drum smoker). If you search around you probably can find everything for free except the grates... my 2 cents http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/f/199/uds-builds Boykjo

    First smoker, considering UDS or offset firebox, need guidance.

    ...by lurking. I have access to some old oil barrels and my brother in law is an experienced cutter and welder. It seems that the Ugly Drum Smoker (UDS) is the most commonly recommended use for such a barrel, but i have a few questions: 1. If you have the means, is something with an offset...

    charcoal to wood in small offset smoker

    ...metal and construction the more efficient they are. Oklahoma Joe's are a step up and Yoder's are very nice. You may find building an Ugly Drum Smoker (UDS) is to your liking. If you want to buy a great smoker that works well out of the Box, no mods needed. The Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM)...

    UDS = Ugly Drum Smoker
  14. jirodriguez

    New and has no idea.....

    I second the build of a UDS (Ugly Drum Smoker - they aren't actually ugly). You can build a good UDS for under $100 that will work great and last a long time. Only need a few basic tools, and there are lots of instructions on builds in the forum under supplies and equipment section. I have the...

    side pipes on a uds

    I recall having read somewhere (although I can't find it now) that adding bottom intakes that can be capped off was to allow enough rapid air flow at the bottom to get a bed of coals or briquettes going good then be able to cap off the bottom feed and fine tune with the one - usually elevated...

    Stupid (no such thing as a stupid) question of the day

    Josh, UDS=Ugly Drum Smoker.  Usually a homemade 55 gal. drum smoker. Type UDS in the search block and you'll get a ton of info on how to build one, cook on one and recipes for one. Teddy

    Pit Barrel Cooker Question

    ...materials used for construction...it's just a painted carbon steel barrel with customized modifications that many who have built a ugly drum smoker could do, if they wanted to. I think the homemade UDS is far more efficient and offers longer burn times between refueling. Also, the accessories...
