55 gallon drums

I like that!

That's what I was thinking. I saw it on Facebook the other day and it looks pretty easy and fairly cheap. Google "ugly drum smoker," and you will find a ton of different plans for it. "They" claim you can hold 225 for about 12 hours with it. If I can find a drum, I'm going to try it out.

They're usually all over Craigslist.

Mine held 200-225 for almost 26 hours, on half of a bag of Kingsford and 4 small chunks of pecan/cherry wood. It only took the pork butt 12 hours to cook but I wanted to see how long it would hold that temp. I was shocked to see it still running over 200 the next morning.
