    UDS Version 2.0

    Quick question guys.  Almost everyone puts that ash catcher tray underneath the coal basket.  If you had 3'' or 4'' legs on the basket then why would a catcher be needed?   I mean you can actually just let the ashes fall out on onto the bottom of the barrel correct?   Is this just to make it...

    The oven therm is hanging from that grate, not sitting in the sand.  I didn't even look at that one since using the Maverick now.  Actually took it out just before...

    Probes are good. I checked them in boiling water and both read 214, so only 2 degrees off but when I put them in a cup of ice they never hit 32, they were in the mid 40s That I didn't like right? Wondering if I should return this unit.
