Texas | I’m in a different boat than you are and my needs are probably different as well, so that’s why I’m building another UDS also known as a barrel smoker or Ugly Drum Smoker. You start with a food grade, steel barrel. There are stainless steel barrels available but I can’t justify the expense.
I ordered stainless steel hardware that comes in a kit form with templates and a step bit. It makes building your own smoker very simple. My preference as far as wood to cook and smoke with is Pecan. I cut up the tree limbs into disks or wafers ahead of time and store them in large, metal trash cans. A propane torch is used to get a fire going in the smoker. | |
