I know my 110 gallon build is a lot heavier but that looks like a coat hanger on top of a drum

It's feels sturdy enough to me. Will probably be adding some angle iron like the hunsaker.

Why is it you seldom see food grade 30 gallon drums? I want to do build a UDS but I really think 55 gallon might be overkill for my situation.

Why do you say the 55 gallon may be overkill?

Grainger sells unlined drums for $129. Stainless steel for over $700. Unless you’re talking about Craigslist...

30 gallon drums are not a common. 30 gallon drums with an open head- less so.
Do the 55 - it's really not that much bigger. They are easier to find, cheaper to buy and you don't have to use the extra grate space if you don't want to. Don't do "food grade" - go "unlined". If it has a phenolic liner, you'll need 2 or 3 good fires plus some heavy steel brush work OR a friend with a sand blaster to get it all gone.

Think about this. The uds cousin the pbc I understand is 30 gallons. They have to hang the larger meats. The 22" diameter is just about enough to lay the larger cuts of brisket or ribs. Get the 30 but you may have to hang, fold or bend some longer pieces of meat

plus, you can grill on the uds and get rid of the kettle if you wanted to OR, you could just smoke on the kettle and forego the uds altogether. only thing is you wont get the fat dripping flavor(my favorite) but the kettle still puts out some GREAT Q

I want to leave the paint that's on the outside too but that seems to be a questionable thing for UDS builds also. Last edited by Hinds15; 01-24-2018 at 11:39 AM.. |

The rust inhibitor is a coating or film that can be washed out with soap/water and a rag. its not the same has the thick solid liners in some barrels. Then you wipe down with vegi oil or pam and season.

Ah so most likely mine wouldn't have had it since the coconut oil would have kept the drum from rusting?
