He can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Norcoredneck http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=43943 measures 8" down from the top of the barrel for his lower grate. If the barrel is 33 1/2" tall (like mine), then the grate is 25 1/2" above the bottom of the barrel. If your charcoal basket is 2-3" above the bottom, then the grate is 22 1/2" - 23 1/2" above the basket. Also, the bottom of the barrel is not as low as the rim of the barrel, which is where many people measure from. Net result - it seems that there is some leeway in where you put the grate.

I succesfully scored the Weber!
The cooking grates are a lil' rusty but I'll get them clean. The rest seems to be intact. Plus....the kettle fits perfect! So far spend:2 barrels and 1 Weber 57cm/22,5"= 45,00 euro's/58,00 dollars.....plus a little time and petrol. Last edited by Phubar; 11-01-2009 at 01:56 PM.. |

Anyone with a flat lid drum have 2 racks inside? I know it will be a little tight if you move the top rack down 3 inches or so. But maybe if you moved both down 3inches or so it'll work.
Just wondering if anyone played around with any of these ideas.

It works but after a few cooks you get a lot of drippings off lid and right on the meat.

Nice looking drum.... Does it leak smoke on the bottom or does the band take care of that? I was thinking of doing the total opposite. Cutting the top off a sealed lid drum and using that as my top. I guess as long as it holds good temps and cooks good Que, you're good to go!!!

Biggs, I really like the idea of keeping the splice at the bottom...
Smoke rises, right? Weiser

After about 8 cooks I've noticed quite a bit of liquid in the bottom of my UDS. I put some Floor Dry in to absorb it. Anyone else having this? I do not recall reading any commenys about this. Thanks!

I think that this is probably some condensation just finding the lowest point in the drum. Simply take a couple of wadded-up paper towels and give it a wipe. |

My Build...
Well, you all have really inspired me. I just joined bbq-brethren.com thanks to this thread. I'm only half way through reading this thread, but I just finished my first UDS. Here are some pics, including my umbrella mod due to some heavy rain today.
Thanks for all the shared input and helpful advice. Good stuff. |

Thanks from:---> |
