    Charcoal Type?

    I use Kingsford blue bag as well. Typically stock up for the year when it's on sale. The flood soaked 300# and it got shoveled into waste containers. Found some Royal Oak lump on sale using that right now. I think I still prefer the Kingsford.

    UDS Plans Needed

    Nice build. Personally tho I would have mounted the thermometer between the top 2 racks but I guess where you cook most is the ideal place. I get the rustic look with the stick, just looks odd to me. I can't decide if it's the contrast or that it sticks out beyond the smoker. You're going to...

    UDS Build

    Nice looking UDS. I used magnets over the holes in mine. Typically with the exhaust wide open and 1 1/4" hole wide open for air I can maintain 300 easily. I typically run at 250-275. I love mine. ENJOY!!

    Nice build indeed. Where did you snag those expanded metal cooking grates? I like the way they look!

    They call it a Jimmy!

    Great job! And I love the grill grabbers you made. Hope you don't mind if I steal that idea and make a pair!

    PartyQ on the mini.

    Sounds like I need to check out the BBQ Guru! I love getting the most out of the charcoal and wood.

    New here. Just finished UDS build.. Lots of pics

    Not what I was expecting when I opened this up but a nice smoker. That thing should last a lifetime! Do you like the way it cooks? One of my most favorite things about my UDS is that it is a fuel miser. It appears that your fuel door has a good seal based on the photo with it smoking. If so, you...

    Ribs, they are hard to beat on a nice sunny day.

    Fantastic job on the ribs! For the first time this weekend I did a rack on the UDS , unwrapped. Still very good but not quite as juicy as the wrapped version. My motto when cooking is I do them like I want to and I hope you enjoy them.

    Portable "Camping UDS " 20 Gallon Barrel

    UDS heat deflectors - What are you using?

    I placed a cheap aluminum vegetable roasting pan directly on top of my charcoal basket. I'm not sure it was truly necessary since the one time the meat came out too dry I smoked it for almost twice as long as I should have. That's on me! Note that the drippings will still burn and give off some...
