Brian, I can't answer your question (my UDS will have its "test flight" this weekend also). I am curious to hear the answers from the folks with UDS experience...
Jeff, you truly are a gentleman. I can definetely say that I have gotten my $15 worth in information, friendship and entertainment (anybody read about the exploding concrete? NO ONE WAS hurt...and you all know you want to see the pics...you can't get entertainment like that on TV!!!).
I have been wanting to build a UDS for a while and looking for a drum for weeks! I found a few sources for drums but all had the dreaded liners. Last week or so I was at a friends house and spotted a drum sitting off in the weeds and asked him about it... it was soon to be his burn barrel; I...
Hey there FreshMeat,
Sounds like the variance is just the way the UDS works...it makes sense when you consider the heat coming off the basket is more in the center and is going straight up, so the sides would be cooler. I just started mine today; got the top off, vent holes cut and the pre-burn...
Hey Bryan, welcome from another prior service Tennessean...I am in Portland. I think you will find this site to be full of a bunch of friendly folks willing to help and answer any questions you have. good to have you aboard.

First ribs I ever did (a LONG time ago mind you...!) I boiled em' and finished em' in the oven slathered in a bottle of store bought sauce... and we thought they were good!!!!
I have done them quick and hot and they are pretty good (way better than boiled!). I prefer them low and slow.
Welcome TXgirl!!! I love the idea of smoked apples...I will have to try that! how did you do them? peeled, cored, sliced? I will be firing up the smoker on Wednesday, so I will pick up some apples prior...granny smiths you think?
put it in a 1 gallon ziplock,squeeze out the air and in the fridge...pretty much what you do. I like some of the other methods mentioned; around here if we cooked up 3 lbs we would probably eat it all!!!
Wow! now I am going to have to check the weather...I thought it was supposed to be upper 60's/lower 70's, but if they are talking snow in TX, we'll probably not see 70's...
