    UDS wins...

    After using my UDS for several months now and becoming familiar with its qualities, a friend recently gave me his Smoke Hollow Electric Smoker.  I've used it a few times now and I am not impressed.  The UDS kicks it a$$.  I may have to mod the Smoke Hollow to get better ventilation.  But I'm...

    UDS is almost done...

    Well,  My first UDS is almost done.  I'm curious about how low of a temp these drums will maintain.  My dad has been smoking fish for over 50yrs and does some of the best fish ever.  He says never go over 150°.  Will the UDS maintain this low of a temp? Thanks, in advance, for any responses.
