    To the salmonheads at the SMF

    I'm going to toss in a question now... How long do you smoke for at 165-180 then? 'till it flakes? I'm doing salmon this weekend and this thread got me pumped up to do it! J-

    UDS questions....

    I think part of the UDS concept is to have the drippings fall into the coals in order to enhance, if anything, the aroma (and possibly the flavor?) when smoking. I would think since most of the drippings are from fat that they would burn up in the coals anyway...but I could be making things up...

    MES 40'---What's a good price on a used model?

    I just want to have one of each kind... I think an electric might be nice for winter time. I have a screened in back porch that has an outlet. I figure it might be good just to park near the sliding glass door and let'er rip. I figure having 1 electric, one propane, one sfb/gasser, and a...

    MES 40'---What's a good price on a used model?

    My god MAN! I'd a bought 'em all! That's awesome! He is asking $100 for this used one...just wondering if that's a good price or not. Nice score though! J-

    MES 40'---What's a good price on a used model?

    I'm looking at a used SS 40' MES. Anyone have an opinion on what a good fair price might be? A friend of mine is selling his. It's in decent shape from what I've seen. Any opinions? Thanks J-

    UDS Build Off???? Who's interested?

    I started mine already and although I have a second drum I'm saving it for my dad so he can build one too. Maybe next time! Good luck to all of you participating. I can't wait to get more ideas so Pop's UDS will turn out fantastically. J-

    Started my UDS project w/build-view

    Thanks! Yeah, I messed around a bit this weekend and took and bent the lip back all away around just enough to give it a bit more 'grab' on to the lip of the barrel. It worked out pretty well. I also started getting everything together. I have one or two more parts to pick up, but for the...

    What about zinc plated??

    I'm soooooo stupid for not thinking of that! We are actually doing a lab on metal reactivities next week in my chemistry class. I could totally use my hardware for it. That means I could buy the hardware and write it off as an 'expense' for school! Thanks for posting this! J-

    What about zinc plated??

    Yeah...I went with the SS just to be safe as well. Lowe's had a decent selection of things. More expensive, but less guess work as to if it'll make me sick or not! Good Luck with your build! J-

    Linden tree wood...

    Can this be used for smoking? I didn't see anything posted here about it. I read up on it and it said that the wood is light but strong and the fruit from the linden tree can bee used in as tea. Anyone have comments? Thanks! J-

    Started my UDS project w/build-view

    Yeah, the lid doesn't have a perfect fit so I'll have to come up with something. It fits good enough that it rests on the lip of the barrel so I may just take some pliers and bend the lip of the lid out a bit all the way around. I'll have to monkey with it a bit. J-

    Started my UDS project w/build-view

    I got started on my UDS project this week. I bought 2 barrels so this first one is a trial run. I'm pretty much just shooting from the hip using ideas from things I've seen here and elsewhere. Thanks a lot to those who have posted their builds for the great info. Here we go: Here are a...
