    Door lips on smoker in or out

    The only problem is with the lip on the inside, it's harder to do a pull-out cooking grate, which is clutch. I say on the outside of the door.

    Accidental UDS test burn

    True. I should've planned better and had a couple fatties to help sober up the next day

    Accidental UDS test burn

    That's exactly what I am hoping for. It should be good fun. I can only imagine about an hour of chaos though before it starts. Gonna have sauces premade and ready to roll. Do you foil butts? If so, how about in a competition? I have yet to try one without...maybe this weekend..

    Accidental UDS test burn

    I was thinking 6 would probably be close enough. I attended last year, and people ran out of que at different times. Some very early, like they didn't cook near enough. It looked like there would be actual judging as well as people's choice, but this is just a fun type event.

    Meco 5031

    If that is the charcoal version, I have it. It's what I learned to smoke on, but the therm will need to be replaced immediately. It reads something like "warm, ideal, hot" It's actually a fun little smoker, for $30 bucks I'd try it.

    Accidental UDS test burn

    It's the Sedalia BBQ festival. Yea I am mailing my entry tomorrow. Kind of dumb though, they say have 5 GALLONS of bbq? WTF? Anyone know the conversion? I don't measure my liquids in weight terms either.

    Accidental UDS test burn

    Lol. In all seriousness I'm not sure why it kept holding the temp. Maybe since I had almost a full basket everything just kept on igniting. I'm afraid to dump it, it's gonna be messy cleaning out that much ash.

    Accidental UDS test burn

    Well, I must say with the warmer weather I am back in the saddle. Also helping is that the site finally seemed to work out the bugs and I was able to reset my password and get going. So.... Saturday we had some friends coming over for PP and ribs after the annual alumni soccer game. Planned to...

    how big for the exhaust

    I built a 55gal drum into a horizontal smoker. I used 3" crush bent car exhaust from a muffler shop. I had them bend it to a 90deg angle. Plenty of draw with this setup for the size smoker (55gal drum).

    Adding a Propane Starter

    It hooks right up to the propane tanks for grills. Problem is I never have any gas hooked up on the grill when I need it. I love it though.

    Looking for a good rib glaze

    I think the one I have been using with rave reviews is.... (I will verify this weekend...one thing is half part, can't quite remember which) 1 part brown sugar 1 part honey mustard 1/2 part apple cider vinegar reduce in small pan on the stove, then brush on right before you pull the ribs off...

    ?? Et-7, Et-73 ??

    Not that I care about having exactly 375...when it's that hot, I dozed off! More worried about that 300 and below mark, just found one on ebay for 42.95.

    ?? Et-7, Et-73 ??

    What are the maximum temps the probes will read? I had a cheapo Taylor from Lowe's that will only read about 212.

    Fabricating Reverse Flow Smoker W/Pics

    On that stack....could you try and have it centered over the grilling surface, exiting on the side...that way you won't lose any cooking space. So out the side at grate level, and a 90deg bend up?

    first cook on new UDS

    You have gone UDS crazy, and I think I like it. If I can find a drum, I may try the UDS build...we'll see. Thumbsup!

    55gal Drum build, pt2 COMPLETED!!!!

    Well, it is seasoning as we speak, and I am pumped. As some of you may have seen, I changed the plans a little from my previous on hand parts design. I am very glad I did. This is probably the most expensive drum smoker ever made. The only couple things left to do are polish the stack, and try...
