Need a better Bark
Alright all you pros with UDS. I built my own UDS about a year ago and have used it quiet a bit. We have mostly used it for Butts and Ribs. I know some will chastise me but I am using a guru on my UDS for temperature control and love it for its set it and leave it capabilities. The smoker is...- jarnold

Smoking whole chickens
Hey all. I am going to do a smoker full of whole chickens soon and was wondering and wanting the opinions of what everyone thinks is the best wood to use for poultry. What meat temps should I be looking for at the completion of the cook and what is a good average time per pound you can expect... -
1 butt vs 2 butt cook times
Shyzabrau, Maybe my question is confusing. I will be placing the meat at the same time. I was questioning if my total cook times to desired temperature will be less if I did two six pound butts verses one twelve pound butt. naturally the butts would be much smaller in diameter. -
1 butt vs 2 butt cook times
Good afternoon guys, I am going to be doing a father's Day smoke for a good sized crowed this weekend and wanted to ask a question about cook times. I am thinking a 10-12 pound butt for pulled pork will be enough and I have always used the 1 1/2 hour per pound rule for cooking which has worked... -
UDS paint staying tacky!???
Travesty, if your using your UDS for other things I guess you would need high temp paint. Good luck to you in your future.- jarnold

UDS paint staying tacky!???
Hey Travisty, Sounds like you have a mess on your hands. It sounds as if you have gotten some bad paint. I wouldn't think its anything you have done. I am not sure why you used 2000 degree paint since your smoker should never get over 300 degrees. I own an automotive collision repair shop and...- jarnold

Finally got the ole UDS together
I think it's as much for looks as it is functional but I do think it has purpose. If your trying to smoke on a breezy day it is less susceptible to the wind driven into the smoker if it was windy. If you think about it just a slide vent would be hard to control the natural drafts of wind unless...- jarnold

Debating a UDS build. Advice needed!
Hey there Travisty. Maybe I can give you some input from my experience building my UDS. When I decided to do my build, I did have welding capabilities and thought that would be the best way to attach my elbows for my down tubes. After hindsight I am not sure I would do that again and reason...- jarnold

Finally getting started on my UDS build.
Joe, How did you locate a 55 gallon drum that has the dimensions you quoted? I noticed you said your drum was 56" and a standard common 55 gallon drum is only around 34". I have thought about adding height to one to get more room but if you can find one this size that's great.- jarnold

Finally got the ole UDS together
Well for months maybe even a year I have been craving a smoker and truly had my heart set on a WSM, but began looking and admiring some of the Ugly Drums that people on here as well as You Tube have done so I thought I would give one a try and see how it turned out. I started with a drum that...- jarnold
