update... today I put the pipe on with the ball valve, and I took the rope gasket off, and added a high heat silicone gasket. It is curing now, hopefully it is fully cured by sunday. I got some sausage and bacon today, and hope to do my first fatty on sunday!!!
I am trying to figure out the best way to do a Venison sausage fattie... The venison is so lean I don't think it will hold together. Maybe I need to find a source for some caul fat... maybe that would work... Those look great BTW
Just a basic rub, Brown sugar, paprika, salt, pepper. I did 4 of the chicken legs with salt only for my 2 yr old.
I am having trouble with the seal on my drum so I did not get any pics of the cook in process. I modified a lid from a cheap 22 1/2 kettle, and I am having huge issues with air...
Got to break in my new UDS. Got some chicken drumsticks, and County Style Ribs... Not a bad first meal!!! Already planning a Boston Butt for Superbowl Sunday.... Hopefully the Patriots will help make that day a little better!
So far today I have gotten the whole thing built, now it has a big fire in it. I will wait for that to die down and then I will go spray the inside with some pam, wait for it to cool down, and tomorrow I will do a test burn.
Not a bad day's work... Happy New year!!!
Today I picked up my barrel. Took it to the carwash and cleaned it up. This afternoon I snuck in some time to build my firebox... Tomorrow we burn it out, and mayby by saturday we try some drumsticks on it!!!
Just wanted to introduce myself.
I am an avid cook, but fairly new to BBQ. I have done a few cooks on a makeshift smoker at our Camp in VT. But nothing very good. I have learned how to use my Gas Grill to produce some fairly good ribs, but decided late last summer that I really wanted to do...
Santa was good to me. He got me a cheap 22 1/2 in grill, and a gift card to Lowes. My drum is at the sandblaster (hopefully will be done tomorrow) if i get it back by the weekend I plan on doing my build on New Years day. I have three pallets ready to burn it out, and just got back from Lowes...
