    22.5 Weber Kettle conversion or UDS

    My wife may leave me but I just bought an older 18.5" and 22.5" Weber kettle on CL for $25 for both. Do you think I should continue with my UDS build (mind you, I haven't started) or should I build the 22.5" Weber kettle up. I was going to use the same method Cajun Bandit does. Also, has...

    Modded ECB or mini WSM, which would you keep?

    OTS (Off The Shelf) and super cheap UDS Build

    Drum question: Where I am, I can get a non-food grade for $12 or a food grade for $25. I haven't been down there but I'm pretty confident the food grade will still have liner. I've googled this with mixed results. Should I get the non-food grade and just do a burn? Or should I really get the...

    Modded ECB or mini WSM, which would you keep?

    Do you guys ever have space issues with the miniWSM? My concern is I have to do a turkey for Thanksgiving and I don't think I'll have the UDS done by then.

    Modded ECB or mini WSM, which would you keep?

    I'm running out of room on my back deck and my third car bay. I have a modified ECB gourmet and I built a mini WSM for the heck of it. I am going to build a UDS in the next month or two. I'd like to keep a small smoker so that I am not firing up the UDS to do a beer can chicken or a rack of...

    OTS (Off The Shelf) and super cheap UDS Build

    I ended up getting an aluminum 40 qt pot, no holes, at a thrift store. I figure an hour with my drill and a beer should solve this. I ended up picking up yet another smokey joe there for $9. My garage is looking like a graveyard for grills.

    OTS (Off The Shelf) and super cheap UDS Build

    Thanks for the replies. I've read that people had issues with threaded pipe nipples and getting them on/off. Is that true? For a firebox, I was dinking around Winco and I think I might have found a solution. It is a 20 qt steamer basket for $11. Do you think that has enough holes in it?

    OTS (Off The Shelf) and super cheap UDS Build

    Hi everyone, After reading and reading and some reading, I was going to buy a WSM 22.5". That was, until my wife said "pool table or smoker, but you're not getting both...unless you plan on sleeping on the pool table". (For the record, I said I'd sleep under the pool table, not on it). Anyhoo...

    Hello from the Pacific Northwest

    Hi Everyone, I'm a long time lurker (about three months now) and thought I should register. I got into smoking after my daughter was home sick from school and we watched all three seasons of BBQ Pitmasters. I have a Ducane gas but added an ECB Gourmet charcoal and ECB Electric, courtesty of...
