Did this this morning after dropping my kid off. It's definitely got some sort of coating on it. We'll see what a fire does. Might consider sandblasting too.

It doesn't feel plasticine. Feels smooth, almost just like the metal itself. I'm concerned it's an enamel, which idk if a fire would remove. Might be out 30 bucks, but luckily that's a pretty small amount to lose. Might get a fire going in it today. We shall see.

Bought today for 30 bucks. Formerly held some sort of coconut oil based body product.

Hey all, I rarely post, but my old UDS rusted out and has been outta commission awhile. Picked up a new drum today and want to see what everyone thinks. Is this a good drum for a build? I don't think it is lined but it's hard to tell really. Surely someone's used something similar and will know...

I wonder if it'd be a better idea with a subsequent smoker to store it in the shed (recent acquisition as we moved a few months ago, didn't have that at the last place). Probably also need to be more diligent about cleaning it after use (oftentimes it's late, tired, long day, etc).

Hey all, been awhile! I've had my UDS for around 5-6 years and finally the rust on the bottom seems to have gotten bad enough that there's a small hole there now. Any suggestions on a fix? Piece of sheet metal and some pop rivets? Metal screws? Ball up some tinfoil and stick it in there? I...

Hey all, been awhile since I shared anything but I just had to document my turkey cook. First time I'd even done a whole bird, and hoo boy, the results were something. First off, look at the majestic sunrise that greeted me on Thanksgiving morning: No time to admire it, though, there was...

Hi all, been awhile but I've got much to report. Firstly, a few weeks back I got that itch to cook. Hadn't been able to in quite some time, so I started browsing, and came across the idea of a smoked meatloaf (thanks SeenRed). Not knowing this was even possible previously, I set out to do it...

Question, cuz I wanna do these Friday on my UDS, what is it you set them on in smoker/grill, and where can I get something similar? 

Link didn't seem to work..... Killer ideas, thanks Richie. Any idea where to find such things? All set to cook up a bunch this weekend and need to get this done fast.

Do I just buy another one of the same or can anyone recommend something better?

Tested the thermometer with the tip submerged in boiling water on the stovetop. Registered around 175 in boiling water?  Ergo, do I just compensate for the difference?

It sounds like I need to test it. When I got it, I was told that the thermometer was pretty accurate (I know they typically aren't THAT accurate). Anybody know a good, reliable method to test this?

I bet that was the issue. Had a buddy come and watch the stuff for me while I had to leave for a while, and when he foiled them, no liquid. Is that what caused it?

Finally got my UDS a few weeks ago and was just itching like crazy to try that bad boy out. It worked much, much better than I could've ever anticipated. Here she is, sitting steady at 225 with some nice TBS:  And what, you may ask, did we cook for the inaugural run? Well, let's see what's...

I received part one 2 days ago but haven't gotten any others since. How can I get them?

They wouldn't be adjustable. I got to thinking about it and realized that with just one I can't really put a pan in for water or drippings or anything. Would there be a danger of flare-ups and dried out meat?

Hey all, I've got a guy building a UDS for me, and I selected to have only one grill grate put in. He can add another below it, but I wasn't sure if it was necessary. Have I done this wrong? Should I change my request?

Thanks for the warm welcome, all! I'm really gonna get a helluva lot of good information from here. My pic in the first post didn't work, so I'll try again here. The one on the bottom of the photo was so tender after 7 hours, you could've dropped a fork right through it. Also did ribs once...
