    Finally finished! Put wheels, handles and a coal basket together. Used a hay hook to lift the basket in/out with. I set out to be able to open all vents and bbq hook/and cook style temp wise (still use grates to cook on) or shut it down and bbq at 200-250 low and slow style. I made my first...

    OK, I put a handle on the lid and the back to move it with. I'll put wheels on later.Pix later too. I put a PVC ballcock on one of the inlets. I thought I'd take it out back to season it and see if it would hold any kind of temp. I opened all the valves and vents wide open to start the coals and...

    My neighbor has built several of the 55 gal. drum cookers that have the rebar through the barrel that the meat hangs on. I wanted something that I could cook like that or bring the temp down as far as I want it to go and bbq low and slow. This is my first attempt and when I found a source of...

    UDS Newbie

    Hello, My name is Brian (55yrs) and I live in Clovis ca. I am a fan of charcoal/wood bbqn' so it wasn't much of a leap to try a UDS out. I have a neighbor who has made many of the UDS bbq'rs.
