Any other UDS fans out there?

Postby KSims1868 » Thu Jun 03, 2010 8:33 am

Any of my Texas brothers build their own UDS or are all you guys using off-set smokers?
I built this a couple months ago. Talk about a great smoker. I can get a 14-15 hr smoke/cook at 225-230* on 1 full basket load of coal/wood. Very efficient smoker and puts out some excellent BBQ.

Right now I only have the single rack but I'm looking for a Weber 22.5" kettle lid so I can add another rack up top to double my cooking area.
2010 - the year I learned to BBQ (after 20 years of grilling)
Equipment: Homebuilt UDS (upright drum smoker) - love it. Holding temps in the 225-240* range for 15 hours on 1 basket of coal/wood chunks.
