Drum-o-lator

[Rib-O-Lator]

I use my rib-o-lator in my UDS to do ribs and other meats.

my uds is a gasser, may be sacrilege, but it works great and can control temps.

i cut the bottom out and moved it up a foot and re-welded, then attached one of those turkey burners underneath. this way there is no direct heat source in the drum just chips etc for smokin.

the tube at the bottom is so i can drip water for moisture

finale step is adding the sauce to caramelize.

i cook them at 250-300 for about 3hrs and they turn out perfect every time, never foil or turn.

This is really cool, and I love to see stuff like this .... BUT ... I gotta ask:

Is all that really any easier to manage than a standard UDS?

In any case, cool stuff, and I know a lot of folks love the rib-o-lator.

if bbq was easy everyone would be doing it. sometimes it's just a mater of doing something different. and as far as a rib-o-lator in a uds, it definitely works better.

Will this unit hold a full slab in each of 4 trays?

[redbandit98]

what size are the trays. I was thinking about one to use for bone in chicken breasts. I was wanting to see how many it would hold and see if it would be worth it for the extra capacity.

It will hold a slab on it tray and I will find out the capacity for you. I just too these on in our store here and have some coming in soon.I will do a full review i a few weeks for all.
