DIY BUDS Project
This is for the DIYer’s out there. BUDS – Big Ugly Drum Smokers and UDS – Ugly Drum Smokers are one and the same. Different people describe the same thing in different ways.
If you’re looking for a project that yields tasty results, look no further. There really is not much that is more satisfying than to be able to eat great food from your own home built smoker.
It looks like you either have to know how to weld or have a friend who does who’s willing to help. This could be a cool project where you make two of these BUDS – one for you and one for your welder buddy.
You will need some different thermometers when you build your own UDS as well as for testing whatever you smoke. Here are some suggestions for you.
We know that some of you have made your own pits and BUDS. Please send tips and pictures for those in the community that might be thinking of making one of their own smokers.
