Got home from work today and the UDS was still holding a temp around 150 22 hrs after I fired it up yesterday evening. Got another trial run going now. Got the temp regulated and set in at 250 much quicker than I did yesterday.
Learning quickly that I need a good thermometer for the UDS. |

Got a good burn on the uds today. Tomorrow it's on to removing all the soot and sanding it down. I'm ready to start cooking on it.

If your not going for a show quality finish, and don't mind repainting in a few years then you are fine with no primer. I always use a self etching primer, 3 light coats, then sand with 400 grit. Then apply top coat. That just helps the paint stick really good, and gives a super smooth finish. BUt what you are doing is fine. Im just a perfectionist.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Seeking any leads on a food grade 85 gal or 110 gal drum in Riverside, CA - La Sierra/Norco/Corona area. Also need expanded metal for the fire basket.
I know there are probably sources buried in this thread but am currently only up to page 167 |

How often does everyone reseason their drums? Does the moisture from your cooks keep the internals seasoned nicely?

Did my first cook on the UDS today. Did some spare ribs. UDS held its temp like a champ.
Ribs had a great taste but were overcooked. They were falling apart when I took them off the grate. Got to get some more hrs under my belt with the UDS. |

I got to finally spray the drum. I still need to sand the inside. Do I need to just ensure that the pink liner that was there before is no longer present or do I need to sand it back to silver steel?
My sander is to big for the inside so this is going to be a real mare! Attached some pics of progress so far. Just for reference, anyone looking to paint their drum soon, it took me 2 x 400ml Rust-oleum cans for the 1st coat. Thus I will need to order another 2 for a second coat. |
