Probably the most informative video on the net about fire boxes.
Thank you, I tried to cover everything I wanted to know when I first started and couldn't fund.
Have a great week 🤘
Absolutely the most informative video I've seen on fireboxes (engines). I am starting to build my first UDS. I can't go wrong thanks to videos like yours. Thanks brother. Keep on smoking!
Thank you, good luck on the build. Building a drum and the engine helps you understand what's its doing should do and when things go wonky (like ash buildup causing smothering or lack of air flow/exhaust.
Have a great week 🤘 🖤
Great video, sir! To be honest, the fire basket is kind of what’s been holding me back from starting my own build. You’ve given me some great ideas and shown me that it CAN be done - thanks!
Thanks Tim, and your welcome. the basket is easily the most important piece. Building it doesn't have to be rocket science hahaha. All these work great and are simple no weld projects that can be fun with a kid or 2. Have a great week 🤘🤘
Famous words … Kids Involved !!!! 👌
Thank you hahaha
Have a great week 🤘
A very timely video for me as I'm about to undertake my first UDS build. All of the options you showed looked great and very doable (i.e. no welding), and seeing what could be used for the deflector shields was good info. Thanks for an informative and straight forward video.
Your welcome Wayne, the whole purpose was to show inexpensive possibilities. Thank you for commenting I enjoy reading how my videos have help someone.
Good luck on your build and have a great week 🤘🤘
Thank you
You're welcome.
Have a great week 🤘
The king of mods! Excellent work.
Hahaha thanks Bud, not quite the King. Have a great week
Man I love your engineering
Thanks Bob, it a fun little hobby of sorts hahaha. Hopefully it helps ya out.
Have a great week 🤘 🖤
That was fun to watch big Country!! I remember watching the washer tub build!! You have some great ideas and engineering!! Hope all is well brother!!🤘
Thanks Brother I was hoping it wasn't boring, biggest part of a uds is the building cheap and having an awesome engine to run it. Have a great week
Great information on charcoal baskets! Thanks brother.
Thanks Mike, it's a topic that can be a "this is it, only this way" thing. Hopefully it gives more ideas for inexpensive diy projects.
Have a great week
Great video Bear I just subbed to your channel. Im in the process of making 2 UDS smokers now.
Thank you, building a uds is so much fun, I really enjoyed making mine so many options. Have a great week 🤘
Awesome!! Just about to make a couple of drums -Thank you for the education !!
That's great, drums smokers are awesome cookers especially when ya make them. So glad ya found something good in that video. Have a great week 🤘🤘
@@smoking_bears_ you have a great week too sir ! As great as youtube is its nothing without the people that take the time and effort to film videos that help people out ! Much respect !
Well shoot that’s crazy cool bear! I wish I had your skills, I just fumble my way through building things. I do want to make a UDS at some point. Awesome job brother for sure. And have a great week bear clan!
Thanks Unc, skills are really just playin around in the garage avoiding the wifes honey do list. Hahaha. Building a drum is super easy, just drilling holes thru a barrel. Engines are as complicated as you want it to be.
Start basic then add on.
Have a great week Unc
Very creative ideas! Thanks!
Thanks, hopefully it helps someone out that doesn't want to spend alot.
Have a great week
Great video. My original UDS uses expanded metal wrapped around a Weber charcoal rack. I’m strongly considering making a BCF to replace it with. I have STŌK grill I may start using the dome lid from it on a UDS as you did. I enjoyed the video.
Thanks Big Lew, the Stok grill is pretty awesome grill. A mod u make to the BCF would be cut the bottom out and use a pizza pan or something as an ash catcher.
Have a great week
Smoking_Bears_ I use a pizza pan for the current expanded metal one. Trouble with me making a UDS is finding a. Metal 5 gallon bucket that is not zinc plated or galvanized.
@@BigLewBBQ I ordered mine off Amazon it was like $15 or so
Smoking_Bears_ there is a farm and ranch supply place near me. They have tin lard cans 6 gallon size for $19.99. I’ll check the Amazon for a 5 gallon steel. Thanks.
Hill Billy ingenuity
It became a game of sorts cheaper the better hahaha.
Have a great week 🤘 🖤
Love your creativeness! Metal On! \m/
Dude, you have some creative ideas. Subscribed to explore more of your channel's content. I see an upside down 55 gal drum in the background, I assume for easy clean out of grease after the cook? Grease clean up after the fact has been a concern, but your idea should fix that. Anyway, thanks for this vid. Love my weber kettle, but gonna build a UDS soon. They look like a blast to cook on. Thumbs up, peace brother.
Thanks Bud, yeah a uds is an awesome cooker and so versatile. The upside down drum is super easy to clean it comes apart similar to a weber smokey mountain. Good luck on your build, the main things are air flow and have fun building it. Have a great week 🤘 🖤
glad i watched your vid ..thanks
Thank you hopefully it helped
Have a great week 🤘 🖤 🤘
Good info brother thanks have a great weekend.
Thanks Bud, I was hoping it wasn't to boring and yet have some understandable points for novice udsers. Have a great week
@@smoking_bears_ It was useful to me because I am building one right now thanks
Great video, great explanation. Stay Safe
Thanks Bud, I know there's alot of questions on baskets that aren't really talked about. Have a great week and stay as safe as possible
Wow Lee I didn’t realize you had so many cookers. Nice engine designs there. I especially like the perforated pizza pan idea. Are you joining Big Lew’s UDS build colab? I think the vids drop in early June?
Thanks Gary, yeah I've got a few hahaha they are addictive.
Yeah I'll be joining Big Lew's collab, thought I'd break mine into segments so I dont end up with a looooong video.
Have a great week Bud
Very cool setup!
If it works, its a win!
You sure got plenty to work with.... you say you own a BBQ diner? 👍👍👍
Yeah just a few cooking toys.
Doors open come on down.
Have a great week
@@smoking_bears_ soon as this plague is over, I hope to be headed....NC for a few weeks. We may have to do a meet n greet/camp and cook collab?
Hi great video what is the difference between a bcf ..and a charcoal basket .. and what would either be used for
Thanks Karl, the difference between the BCF and a regular basket is in a BCF the ashes fall to the bottom of the bucket, and is self contained. Good for shorter cook like ribs and shorter. Also great if your experimenting with different charcoal brands, if ya dont like a brand less in the basket to discard. Where in a big basket it maybe full.
The regular big ones I'll fill full and get a couple long cooks as well as shorter cooks in. Just pull the basket shake and empty ash pan and go. Just my $0.02
Have a great week 🤘🤘
Looks yummy!
Thanks, have a great week
Is the pizza pan (on the bcf) aluminum?
Yes, it's one of those pans with holes in it that I drilled a few bigger ones.
Have a great week 🤘🖤🤘
What does BCF stand for?
BCF stands for Beer Can Fischer, which is the name of the guy credited for the design. Have a great week 🤘🖤🤘
@@smoking_bears_ awesome thanks. I think I saw that guy in a fb group I just joined. Just started smoking meat this summer. $20 gas brinkman. Putting an ugly drum together now. Thanks for the response and for your videos!
@@thomasvaughn1688 welcome to the bbq community. Any questions feel free to ask. Have a great time building that drum it's a fun process. 🤘🖤🤘
Just get a big brake drum to a truck. Last almost forever.
That's a great idea. Thanks for the tip.
Have a great week 🤘 🖤
