Made this for a friend of mine who is just getting into smoking. Do you think he'll like it?

I'll look for my original seller if you like. Ash the guy above if he can size it for you and choose a colour, mine was supposed to come in black but he gladly did it in white.

How well does the vinyl stand up to the heat on the side of the barrel?

Dr_KY · 11-26-2010, 09:26 AM

Been on mine for two years and still going strong. It's darkened a little when the temps got away from me ( flames out the top) but it's still there.

Nice looking drum, I know I would like it.

Well, I'm finally making my second UDS, mainly for ribs and chicken, but I guess I should ask any ??'s on a new thread.

Got a Kingsford kettle lid that fits my drum nicely, and the drum doesn't have no red or tan liner, just bare metal.

I suspect the guy who posted the craigslist entry about the custom grates is our own Midnight Smoker Guy(I think his screen name is Meyer-something). There can't be that many people doing custom metal work in Minneapolis, KS.

Hey folks,

I have a newly minted 55 gallon UDS and just received my 2" pit thermometer from BBQ Bonanza. I already have a turkey thermometer mounted just below the lower cooking grate. Where should I mount this 2nd thermometer that has a 2" probe end? Dome lid? Another part of the UDS body?

Thanks.

Anxiously waiting with drill in hand.

I just contacted the CL guy, and he replied right away. Pretty reasonable for a custom cooking grate that will be part of my Bucky Badger UDS. I'm excited about this possibility!

jeffsee · 11-30-2010, 07:05 PM

Hey, all.

I PM'd JD to ask about getting one of his slider intakes made up and, sadly, he is out if the UDS business. He did, however, say if there was enough interest from folks, he might look into having the metal shop fab some.

Who else is interested in on of JD's nifty intakes?

Dave Russell · 12-01-2010, 07:14 AM

Probably anyone that doesn't have three nipples.

They can keep there nipples and add a JD intake. if they can get one. JD may not want to deal with anybody with three nipples tho.
