    Getting a good fire going

Had a hard time getting it up to temps and wondering if my method was poor. 17" charcoal basket 4" off the base of the drum, all intakes and exhaust Open.

    Charcoal basket height

    If my intakes are 2" from the base of my drum, how much higher should my charcoal basket sit? Finished up the basket (17" grate with 12" high expanded steel around it) but need to decide on how tall to make the legs. Planning to season and do a cook this weekend if the weather cooperates

For some reason...

    UDS clean enough on inside now?

    Hey guys! Currently building my first UDS and am wondering if the inside is clean enough (re: bare metal) to clean and oil/ season? 2 burnouts on a drum with a liner for vegetable oil. Here are some pics, the bottom no longer looks like that but that's what it all looked like inside after the...
