Picked up 20 twin pack of Kingsford at Sam's the other day. The next day I went out to clean up the cookers and put some more paint on them. I figured, while I was at it, I'd fill up the charcoal baskets on all the UDSs. I actually had been so tapped out of charcoal that I went and opened up a fresh new 20# bag and dumped it into the charcoal basket of the first UDS. Imagine my surprise when the bag was empty but the basket was not full. :shock: There was still a good 2" to go until the basket was full! :shock:

So how big a sack does your UDS need?


Oh, as a side note, if you are having trouble finding a drum to build your UDS, when you call up scrap yards looking for one, ask if they have burning barrels. Turns out my local scrapper was refusing to sell drums to people for smokers but would more than gladly do so if they wanted burning barrels. Think he must have a big concern for people poisoning themselves or something.
