Hello from Blackpool

Hello all,

I've been interested in (what I thought was) barbecue for many years. A couple of summers ago I bought something like this...



... which I thought was going to be excellent. I've used it a good number of times and produced edible food which people have complimented me on. But I'm sure nothing like the treats people here are produing. This is what I aspire to. Usually I've resorted to grilling burgers in the firebox!

My goal this year is to build a UDS and cook some awesome pulled pork.

Wish me luck!

Hi and Welcome
Good luck with the UDS, they are brilliant toys.

Welcome - you will find a bunch of UDS nuts on here.

Never used an off-set smoker myself but I do know that the bullet style are easy to use and render awesome results with a little thought and patience.

Thanks guys, just need to find a barrel!

Hi have the same smoker and find it works great, I use a mixture of charcoal and what ever wood I want to flavour it.
I have had some fab results, the temp is so easy to control using a combo of firebox vent stack.
Happy smoking.
Cheers
Jerry
