    UDS with a funky lid

    When I built my UDS I couldn't find a lid anywhere, so I used a tub and flipped it over and added a handle and vent. Here are some pics with a smoked pork loin using apple wood. it could not have been any more tender.

    Production UDS

    I guess no one is going to look at my pics. That's ok.

    Why are you warapping it?

    Production UDS

    Here is my prototype build. I didn't use the 1'' nipple on the bottom. I used replacement Weber vents. Three around the bottom which I know now is overkill.

    Production UDS

    If I can get a decent barrel which I started with then it took me about 10 hours. That is after I did two burns. Now mind you this isn't with finished paint, just four coats of high temp paint from a can.

    Production UDS

    I found a local place that I can get good used barrels for $ 40 that come with a lid. After doing a prototype of my own ( needs some adjustments) I believe I have around $100-$130 in it. So say $130 and $40 isn't bad if I can get between $200-$250. I just really believe if people saw these...

    Production UDS

    I am thinking of making UDS smokers for sale to the public after I get a great design. I already have a good one that works. My question to everyone is : Do you think a well built UDS will go over in the public? I know about the research and marketing, but I never see them anywhere and they...

    Deflector plate

    It's a UDS I built. I don't know if it's a problem. I was just wondering if the plate having holes in it was right or not and since it is only 16 inches will it deflect enough heat in a 55 gallon drum.

    Deflector plate

    I use a 16" deflector plate ( Pizza Pan) that has small holes in it. Could this be a problem, or does it matter? I picked it up at Walmart and the holes are only about 1/8 inch.

    UDS temps

    Hey Chad, Nice build on your UDS. My question is how long will the 20 briquettes last? A slow cooked Brisket could take up to 10 hours.

    UDS temps

     Thanks for the advice.I will get some pics to show. During the cook when I sealed off the Weber vents, I didn't see any smoke coming from them. I put a 3/4 full of lit charcoal from my chimney in the  basket that had about four inches of  charcoal with the Minion method. The more I think about...
