    Would you?

    If you were going to a fair or some type of outdoor gathering where there was meat getting smoked and you had no idea what our smokers were.

    Ash catcher for charcoal basket

    When I built my UDS I didn't have a catch pan for the ashes. It wasn't a big deal at first but now I'm starting to get tired of having to tip the drum over to empty the ashes. I was looking for an 18" steel pizza pan that I could weld to the legs of my basket but can't seem to find one anywhere...
