Thanks, the ace guy gave me troubles telling me I don't want stainless bolts because they corrode and are weak. I told him they are not strength bearing and explaned why and he told me that stainless bolts like that don't exists. OK:rolleyes: At home depot they had like mentioned above a large stainless section hanging in bags but all in smaller sizes. Lowes was pretty much the same as home depot. I might look into soaking them.

You'd be buying by the box of 50 or 100 pcs, but the prices end up about the same as buying screws/bolts/nuts individually at a hardware store. BM |

If anyone in the Fenton, MO area is looking for a 55 gallon drum, I have noticed one over the last month or so sitting behind a gas station/restaurant building. I believe it actually was used by a food truck operation that also had a small restaurant. They have moved or went out of business and it looks like another food truck operation will be opening in the coming weeks. I really don't think anyone would mind if you go pick it up. It does look to be about a 1/3 full of chocolate syrup and seems to have the red lining. PM me if you are interested for more details.

On another note, I did find the hardware today. I went to a different ace and was in and out in 10 minutes. |

Probably have 10 cooks so far on my UDS. It holds a temp like a champ. Longest I have paid attention to it is 14 hrs. Held 250 for that long. Never have to adjust a thing once it gets to temp.
Problem is I can't seem to get enough smoke flavor in the meat. Or atleast not like I can with my offset smoker. Anyone else had this issue? I add more wood every cook. Last time I actually put a piece of hickory in vertically in the center of my basket from top to bottom and filled around it with charcoal and more wood chunks. |

I love my weed burner. I just ground the lid off my drum and I'll be using the weed burner to burn it out next. Slowly making progress.

I have a few cooks on my UDS. Still learning it but one thing that annoys me is that the lid fits really tight. I have to give a good push to get it to set properly and a good yank to get it off which usually means disturbed ashes all over. I was thinking of putting a rope gasket in the lip of the lid so it still seals around the lip but doesn't fit all the way down tight. What's everyone's thoughts on a stove gasket with high temp permatex holding it in place?

I find Temps with Lump too up n down so I run KBB with a bunch of wood chunks and get plenty of smoke flavor and long steady temps. Plus I like to stock up when KBB is half price at Memorial Day and Labor Day.
