I am actually in the process of typing up step by step instructions of my build. I think it will be useful to future builders.
For my deflector, I made for rings of circles. For the outer most circle I used 3/4" holes. I stepped down one bit size for each ring. There was no science to the...
All the water pan really does is deflect the heat from going straight up the middle of your barrel. I made a heat deflector by using a pizza pan and cutting holes in it. Some people say a water pan takes away from allowing the juices from the meat to fall onto your coals and having the...
I am building a UDS and had to buy a 4' x 4' sheet of 9 gauge steel mesh. I can make 5 basket sides out of this (10 inches high x 15 inch diameter). I only need 2 of these. Would anyone be interested in buying 1 of the other 3?
You will need to supply the ash pan and the basket base. This is...

Has anyone on here been to Myron Mixson's Jacks Old South Cooking School? I have read other places that it is well worth the money. It would be a big investment ($750 + airfare, hotel, car) but being young (30), I would learn skills I could use for 40+ more years...
