New Guy with a UDS
I am in that I know how close it is and that there isn't really that much more to do. Another thing is that it is suppose to rain all weekend where I live and I was wanting to do at least my test run/seasoning this weekend and then do a test cook before the holiday. I would like to do a ham...- nfrancis04

New Guy with a UDS
After grinding for what felt like eternity, I got the liner out of my drum. Prolly not every last inch of it but I said f it I'm done and it will be as good as it will be.

question regarding the exhaust setup: will or shall I leave the exhaust open at all times or will it need to be dampered/closed at some point during the smoking process? I do have something in mind to put in place of the pre-existing exhaust cut out on the dome lid- nfrancis04

The lid material is very thin and was difficult to weld. It still...- nfrancis04
