Raptor72 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 16 hours ago, Bucksend said: Yeah I looked at ProQ/smokey mountain but didn't think they were worth the extra £££ above a decent UDS. Many advantages over a UDS other than access to the fire? I have a 47 weber kettle but it's just a bit tight for space if I want to cook any more than a single item. And I'll keep it for hot n fast My two pennies. A UDS built with a kit or careful positioning of DIY plumbing bits will do the job you want . However the PROQ/Weber SM has been designed specifically for the job and if you can spend the dinero takes some of the guesswork out of it . And produced great results. I loved the idea of proving to myself I could build something and subsequently over engineered it lol . But I personally realised that being so busy a pit barrel or proq WSM would suit my basic needs better . With the kits we mentioned especially the ones from UDS parts has been engineered to make optimum airflow and great results. I have no experience on the big poppas kit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucksend Posted January 24, 2019 Author Share Posted January 24, 2019 Thanks @Raptor72that's really helpful. Think I need to do some maths on a 'no holding back' UDS and see how my vision compares to a purpose built WSM/ProQ 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve j Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Yeah smoking monkey's right I had 4 3/4 vents but I didn't seem to be getting enough air flow so I used a big poppa vent and enlarged the top vent, problem solved 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
