Jimmy's winter coat and UDS winter coat

Fwismoker · Nov 27, 2013

I'm finding the stainless steel is a great insulator so far but i figured it couldn't hurt making a jacket for it since i was making one for my UDS. The stuff is rated for 250* working temp and it has mostly dead air space between it the smoker so even if i'm cooking at 350 it shouldn't get that hot on outside of the smoker.

The air intakes are still able to breath as well and i can access the food. I'm in the process of making one for the UDS and will post that as well. I'll fire the UDS up tonight for a test run.

It's just a slip on so no cords to hold it in place.

What if it rains? You should always put a raincoat on your Jimmy.

Mine's not as big as yours, I just use some 1 1/2" pipe insulation.

Ok guys and gals...SUCCESS! It's 25* outside with 8 windchill and i ran the UDS up to 405* and i'm bumping it down to 275 so i can smoke some rib tips.

The drum is snug as a bug in a rug! :biggrin1:
