My first 16 hour smoked Boston butt and Picnic shoulder on my FPDS (Fire Pit Drum Smoker)

I used a molasses brine, a no salt rub and vinegar base finishing sauce. The Picnic was a wild hog provided by my MOFO Chris that he shot and quartered. MOFO (Men Of Families Organization)

Great looking pork there!  Your FPDS sure has my interest too!

Looks great, what are you using for a lid?

How do you clean it out? Stand on your head or will the pit come out easy?

Thanks

22.5 Weber lid. I found the grill on C-list for $20. It came with the chimney starter, what a deal!

Thanks everyone. Clean up is relatively easy. I take out the cooking rack, then the terra cotta diffuser and the rack it sits on, charcoal basket and finally I lift out my ash pan (another 14" terra cotta saucer). Sometimes I use portable dustbuster to get leftover ash. That's it!

I imagine it's the same with regular sized UDS.
