Stainless steel drum Sugestions
 

So I finished my UDS last weekend and it is time for the next project. My buddy offered me his 55 gallon stainless steel drum to make a Q of some sort out of. I have the UDS and am looking for a good idea for what to do with the Stainless drum. I do not have a welder so it is limiting on what is possible. However I can prossbly talk a diffrent buddy into doing some welding if needed. I was thinking some sort of offset smoker but am open to ideas. The collective knowledge on this board is very impresive so i am excited about the possablities.

Another UDS for just hanging? Idk.

Stainless UDS!

Cowgirl has a stainless big poppa smoker uds. Looks amazing.

I'd vote a SS UDS. Would be sweet.

Or you could have your friend weld you up a firebox and make an offset vertical. Just a thought.

+1 and she pulls some AMAZING meals off the custom-made grate

Stainless Steel UDS! No brainer!

stainless steel UDS. it would last forever, your grand kids could cook on that baby years from now. end of discussion. :mrgreen:

We have a Big Poppa stainless UDS. Highly recommend make another UDS. We now have two, both stainless .

UDS it. I will if I ever have a affordable SS drum in my reach.

Humm, 1st thing that comes to mind is send it to me, I will pay shipping. Sorry, I am no help at all! :whistle:

Here's a link to Big Poppa's kit. Your friend could help you put the stuff on the drum.

Well sound like another uds is the fan favorite. :-Dit would look pretty sweet. Other that the obviously awesome look of the stainless uds any other benefits from making one?
I am thinking a horizontal with smoke box would be kind of a fun challenge. Would cost me some beer and q i am sure but would be nice having another q in the arsenal.

I say go with the Stainless Steel UDS w/ the Big Poppa Smoker UDS Kit and possibly get a custom cast iron grate. BigPoppaSmoker hooked Cowgirl up with one and boy does it look sweet.

Here is a link to her blog for her Stainless Steel UDS.
