    My 16 Gallon Mini UDS build.

    Sorry, no more pics. It's gone to it's new home.  It just looks like a regular uds only smaller. 4 nipple, 3 capped and 1 with a ball valve.  4 nuts and bolts to hold the grate and the charcoal basket depicted above.   Well, my first idea was to make a mini WSM like I seen on the Weber forums...

    Crab Apple tree wood

    They have a dealer locator on their website. It's funny that they are not generally sold in the stores normally associated with outdoor cooking. Seems they like to sell them at fireplace shops and such. I got mine from Prairie Janitorial who is my local Treager dealer. I know there are other...

    Crab Apple tree wood

    I've been making my own with a sliding compound miter saw and it's working just fine.  It's a little finer than Todd's dust so it burns a bit quicker.  I get around an hour per row that way but most things I smoke don't need anymore than a full 6x8 AMNS can provide at that burn rate anyway. ...

    Auber makes one for charcoal smokers now. http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=14&products_id=170&zenid=90dae4d5e2e63a923f545c2b1967400c Looks alright for the price.  Aparrently it's basically a fancy PID.

    Should you use firewood??

    I use firewood all the time but only because I know exactly what kind of wood it is.  I get all the birch firewood I want for free from my neighbor who uses it for heat in the winter.  It's cut and seasoned, kept under cover. Works beautifully! If you can't identify the  wood I wouldn't use it...

    Using Weber mini charcoal grill as smoker

    You could also build a "mini WSM" with it by cutting the bottom of a steamer pot out and putting it in the middle between the bottom and the lid. Move the grate up to the top with 4 bolts and nuts and throw a terra cotta saucer in the bottom as a heat diffuser.  Lots of info on the weber forums.

    3-2-1; What a great way to smoke ribs

    When I make ribs, there are usually no leftovers!  I eat them all first!

    New WSM 22.5 question about fuel consumption

    That looks great!  I think if I build something like that the roof will be hinged so I can flip it back if necessary but still not blow away in the wind!

    My 16 Gallon Mini UDS build.

    Just an update, I tried out the expanded metal basket with pretty much the same results.  So I put a total of about 6lbs in and tried it again.  I lit 8 briquettes and waited for them to fully ash over. I put them in a small pile in the middle of the unlit pile.  I had no problem running 230F...

    New WSM 22.5 question about fuel consumption

    Yeah, even as far away as I am we got a lot of smoke last year.  Good luck with camping, it's supposed to rain here all week and through the weekend.  I just hope it doesn't snow!

    New WSM 22.5 question about fuel consumption

    You live up near Slave Lake?  That's pretty horrible, eh?  I've been dealing with wind all spring down south here.  I can't even do work on my shop because I can't handle the sheet lumber in the wind.

    Well I have been wanting a temperature controller to use with my WSM and UDS and this was near the top of my list.  Not anymore. with that kind of customer service, they ain't getting any of my money.  Now it's between the Auber and BBQ Guru NanoQ.  I like the price on the Auber but the NanoQ...

    Party Snack Platter Leftover Fattie!

    Lost these pictures but just found them! Was a really good fattie! Brought home a tray full of leftovers from a snack platter and thought it would go good in a fattie.  The ground meat is a mixture of lean ground pork and ground turkey.  I'm not a huge fan of most sausage available around here...

    Ok Bradley or Masterbuilt.

    Thanks Bear.  Yeah, you're right about having to be there at the end of a smoke regardless. Your post made perfect sense.

    My 16 Gallon Mini UDS build.

    Well I made a new basket today. One of the guys I work with brought me a big piece of expanded metal from his scrap pile.  Had to burn the paint off, but it will be just fine!  Here's the first basket made from a steamer insert. And here is the one I built today: I used the charcoal...
