I just found a FREE 85 gallon drum on... well my secret stash :grin:

I just have to find some good deals on 26.5 in grates and I should be well on my way to creating my XL UDS....

My question is how much bigger should I build the fire pit for this thing?
Should I put four holes in the bottom instead of three?

The barrel was used for grease and is kind of messy, but I figure a good hot burn out, some sanding and then a good coat of bacon grease from a fatty or two and we should be good to go.
 
For my 55 gal drum I used the coal grate from a 18.5 Webber as the base if my basket.

Following that logic the coal grate from a 22.5 weber should work.
