Just wanted to introduce myself.

I am an avid cook, but fairly new to BBQ.  I have done a few cooks on a makeshift smoker at our Camp in VT.  But nothing very good.  I have learned how to use my Gas Grill to produce some fairly good ribs, but decided late last summer that I really wanted to do it right.

SO I am building my first UDS.  I am using the top from a cheap 22 1/2 grill.  I dropped my barrel off at the sandblaster yesterday, and he said it should be done tomorrow.

If all goes according to plan i should be able to burn it out Friday, and maybe get it built Saturday.  If that works I may be smoking something for the Pats game Saturday!!!
 
Nice, I love them barrels. Don't forget the pics.
