4 hours MoyBoy, that's all it takes to have a working UDS. 6 cans of Foster's is all you need.
 
:lol:

Firstly....6 cans of Fosters would have me throwing my hole up.....Actually 1 can of fosters would....:)

Secondly.....Did you give your drum a burn out before you smoked in it??? Even if it was a food grade drum, you should still give it a big burn out before smoking food in it!!!!! Can be Harmful to your health if you don't!!!!
 
Four hours? Not 189 days? Look at Pippy trying to take you down lol.

Nice!
 
No, no burn MoyBoy. It's a brand new, never been used, unlined drum and I scrubbed it out with a stiff brush and hot soapy water. When I fired it up the first time I let it run wide open until it reached 525º then let it run at that for 2 hours before cooling it down to 235º to cook the fatties. I know lots of guys that get new drums and don't burn them out.
 
So what was your total cost to make this MichChef? Really looking forward to more pics since Moyboy never uses his...:lol:
 
No worries mate......Not trying to cause grief....Just didn't want you hurting yourself ;)

Again, the food looks great!!!

What do you mean again? You never said that. You just tried to add hours to his build... acting as if a true burn takes 190 days so you'd win :lol:
 
It cost me right around $100.00, but I was in a hurry and bought what I needed without pricing around. When I build another one next Spring, I'll probably knock $20-30.00 off the price. I paid $30.oo for the brand new drum and I can get all I want. I'll start salvaging and scrounging for the new one now and hopefully will have the charcoal grate, a cooking grate or two and a Weber lid by then.
 
Cool. Did you do all the welding and such yourself? I am going to have to make me one of them next year now that I know that they don't take 189 days of hard labor to make. :lol:
