    UDS question

    Hey folks!  Im keen to build a cooker, but have a few questions about it first. 1)Does it matter what kind of drum I use? I have one here at home, but I dont actually know what it had in it. Its heavy gage and would be perfect in size. Will burning it out make it safe? Im thinking it had oil...

    smoked salt

    Dark colored venison??

    hey man, I eat lots of game meat, and I have to say that Pops is right, smell is the best for whether its good or not.

    My ugly drum build. one smoker.

    This is inspiring. Well built and good design. Do you plan to leave the rough exterior, or paint it with stove paint?  Try it out yet?

I followed that by covering the top layer of the water with a thin...
