about the smoke from a UDS, if your fat is hitting the coals you wont get the blue smoke. That's okay though because the smoke smell that comes from the UDS is pure heaven, who cares what color it is at that point!
I am in the process of gathering stuff and building my first uds. Will the uds smoke be thin blue or white due to drippings falling on coals??
Is the blueish smoke in the picture really what people mean when they say thin blue smoke?
I usually run quite a bit thinner smoke, but i donno maybe I'm doin it wrong. Or maybe... do people just mean that blue smoke in general is acceptable, and it's up to the individual to control how thick it is?

How long do you wait if you are using the minion method? I have always worried that the unlit fuel would ignite and I would just end up with a full chamber of lit fuel. So, I have always put the meat on when white smoke is still billowing out.
This will be 2 questions...
What is the importance of thin blue smoke?
Should I wait till thin blue smoke happens before I place my ribs or brisket or what ever Im going to be smoking?
