Not to mention the ramifications should someone get sick. Who do you blame and who assumes liability? Even with "clean" drums this is a major reason I have yet to sell a UDS. I have made some for friends that paid for the parts and such but if you sell them as a commercial product you assume liability.

The white stuff you see in the drum was crisco, the pic was taken just before I seasoned it. The website says they only use food grade drums and never use any galvanized parts. As a precaution I had the drum going at 400*+ for 2 hours during the seasoning.

TY regarding the food, I thought it was really good. You are correct regarding the lower rack. It can be used to hold a water pan, or even use it to grill meat on high heat. I have not used it at all but am looking fwd to it.
