    Lump or Briquettes??

    Doesn't shaking/kicking/nudging the barrell stir up the ash to where it sticks to the sides? I thought that was a big reason you don't dump the ash out you have to scoop it or use a pan. I just wouldn't want to shake my uds and get ash on my meat.

    Lump or Briquettes??

    So there is somewhat of an ash problem with briqs? I'm not putting a door of any sort in the uds so kicking it is my only solution. I'm making a coal basket like bbq bubba will kicking/shaking the drum still loosen enough ash?

    Sausage & Onion filled ABTs

    Ya Bass, just pretend like you are just as curious as to what happend to it as her. Those look great Darrin. I've never had one without cheese. Nor have I cut them in half like that. It looks a lot easier.

    No weld drum basket

    I noticed the size of your basket was built with an 8 x 48 piece of expanded, but at the hardware store i could only find 16 x 32. Would you cut it in half and try to piece together the 8" size or will I be ok using the 16" but having a narrower circle?

    Lump or Briquettes??

    I prefer lump in my chargriller because of the limited ash build up and the hotter temps, but what is recommended for UDS's. I'm going to want to have a brisket length of cook with one load of coal.

    Just a couple UDS questions

    I got ya, I probably read way too far into also. I'm just very cautious about relying on my uds because I've never seen one outside of pictures much less used one. I do now have a choice between using a barell lid or taking my weber lid off when using my uds. Which is better? What's the...

    Just a couple UDS questions

    I found a lid at the local hardware store. It has some red paint (?) on the underside. How do I get that off? I'm assuming it needs to come off before I put food under it. Also I bought some 3/4 nipple for my intakes. I do not have a welder. Does anyone know if a 1" hole drilled into the...

    Healthy Fatty (Q-View)

    I don't think I've ever seen breakfast sausage seasoning. I'll have to keep an eye out. That fatty looks good, I don't know if I could go without gooey cheese and greasy sausage. i'll see how you like it first ;)

    Just a couple UDS questions

    What do you mean learn the temps of the grill? Sorry for such simple minded questions but I feel as if I'm going on my first date with this UDS stuff. Would you mind giving me the plans or a good way of finding them for the basket? What is the best way to learn how to control the temps? I'm...

    Just a couple UDS questions

    Alright, just a couple of UDS questions before I start drilling. 1) I bought galvanized nipples for my intakes. Is this going to be a problem? I have heard it go both ways. 2) What's the deal with the temps varying so much in these things? What and where is the best place for a side...
