Hello from south central PA

[bassthumb32]

Hello everyone been looking around on this forum for quite some time now thought I'd finally join up. I've only been smoking food for a month or so and have gotten some decent results. I have the cheapest smoker available XD the $75 charbroil on amazon. My lovely bride got it for me for Christmas because I wanted to try smoking. Found out that using this thing almost makes me hate it lol. I'm planning on building a UDS I got the barrels just trying to figure out how I want it done.

Aside from that I'm a 31 year old married guy with a 10 year old boy. I go to dirt track races with the fam. I spend a lot of time practicing sports with my son, we also go fishing a good bit. I used to tournament bass fish and won a decent amount of money doing that. Basically I just spend a lot of time with my family.

Yeah I've been reading the UDS builds for a while now. I was looking for the standard build but I've noticed that there is no "standard" build.

Welcome to SMF
The UDS builds can get confusing on shelve height, fire basket etc.
To confuse you even more take a look at the Hunsaker smoker design.

Welcome to the Forum and I look forward to seeing your build!!

I too am from that area.  I've been wanting to do a UDS.  Maybe some day.
