You may have seen my UDS Build Blog from the other post that I did a few days ago, but since this thread seems to be the "go to" thread for ideas about building UDS cookers, I thought it might be good to post a link to my UDS Build Blog here.

Lots of what I did came from ideas in this giant thread, so my personal thanks to one and all who posted here.

My UDS can probably use, (and will get) some adjustments, but bottom line, I've had it to 525-550F and when I close everything up, the fire goes out, so I know for sure that I can find a way to get any temp I want to cook with. Texas Brisket on Post Oak this week-end!
Has anyone ever tried starting the fire from the bottom of the fire basket so it burns up vs. top down?

I was just curious if any one does it that way.
In my 2 years of cooking on my UDS's I have never started the fire from the bottom of the basket, I just dump a chimney of coals on top of the full basket.
