Here is my UDS build - Fairly standard setup - no weld firebasket instead of a charcoal grate I used these cooking grates that came with the 15 gallon brewpots on my brewing system.
In the workshop next to the brewing system.
I drilled all holes before the burnout, which was probably backwards, but it worked for me.
I cut the bejesus out of my hands on the expanded metal - lesson learned - wear gloves!
Pizza pan for an ash-catcher. It works pretty well, a tabletop grill would be better but what I've got works with little issue.
The burnout
Day after the burnout.
Wire wheeled after the burnout.
Greased up for the first cook
Overloaded fire basket
Ready to go
Smokin away
Spareribs, kielbasa and chorizo - the first cook
nom nom nom
Pork butt for the next cook
And some more sausages
I just picked up a Maverick ET-7 as the digital probe thermo that I had before that didn't work very well or have instructions in English. It works fairly well but the remote aspect of it is useless as apparently it loses the signal once I take the receiver inside my house. Oh well the remote aspect was just a bonus anyways.
I plan on adding a shelf to put the transmitter on, with a hook or two for utensils and / or gloves.
Eventually we are gonna paint it - not sure what yet - and make a base for it with wheels. So far its worked perfectly doing what its meant to do - cook good food!
