    UDS Version 2.0

    Well I was able to keep temps between 220* and 250* with one valve. After opening both up and letting it get hot it reached about and held around 350*. I think that is about as hot as it is going to get with out the BBQ Guru fan.

    UDS Version 2.0

    Woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning excited to finish this smoker. I re-sanded the inside and vacuumed out the dust then wiped it down with a wet paper towel and oiled it up with spray pam. Tossed in a leftover basket of coals and got it going. With both ball valves wide...

    UDS Version 2.0

    I got the racks burned in this afternoon. Definitely not my best work but they aren't going anywhere. All that is left to do is re-sand the inside oil it down and season it. Then I will re-sand and paint the outside. Getting really close now. I did have one blow through but I filled it...

    UDS Version 2.0

    These are both 1", we will see how it goes. I use a BBQ Guru anyways so air flow won't be an issue. Also, I never smoke that at that high of a temperature. So long as I can hit 225-250 it will be fine.

    A question on fitting of Weber lids.

    Yeah, I am in it to win it at this point.

    New UDS build

    Yes, you can definitely do 2 racks. That is what I did but I have never cooked anything on the bottom rack. I keep a pizza pan with holes in it down there as a heat diffuser to keep the temps on the top grate even across it. I have never ran out of room on my top grate and needed more. Then...

    UDS Version 2.0

    Small update, so I have not made much progress on this since the last post but I have been working to make the weber lid fit better. At first it was just a tiny bit too small to fit so I mechanically persuaded the barrel lip to make it work. I started with some channel locks and just grabbed and...
