That looked like a fun project. I have a pit barrel cooker and gave really enjoyed using it. Fits nicely with my other cookers. Maybe I need to “upgrade” to a larger drum.

Solid work, senor - drums are a joy to use

Great video

Great video. I have never heard of this company. I'll have to check out their products.

[@hooksrub]

Nice. Just got mine. Did you prime it first?

[@SmokeMasterD]

I seasoned it. Is that what you mean?

[@hooksrub]

@@SmokeMasterD I meant did you prime it with paint primer before applying the black paint?

[@gerardohermosillo1]

What type of spray paint you use to paint your drum?

[@SmokeMasterD]

Rustoleum 1200 degree paint and red caliper paint

[@markkromer1238]

How heavy is this? Very?

[@SmokeMasterD]

Yes. I'll be putting out a review on it soon so stay tuned!

Turn the drum sideways and attach a firebox. I might can use it then. Drums are a poor design for cooking protein. Half of your protein is cooking in hell hanging next to the coals while the other half cooks. I wouldn’t take a drum cooker if you gave it to me. It’s counterintuitive to the offset. Cheers!!

Yet countless bbq competitions have been won using a drum smoker.

[@SmokeMasterD]

Interestingly enough, there are offset drums. Maybe I'll make a show about them someday.

@@andrewknaff9220 more bbq competitions have been won not using a drum than by using one. Fact! Your statement is senseless and baseless in fact! Pathetic!

[@Isovapor]

@@andrewknaff9220 more bbq competitions have been won without using a drum. You point lacks credibility and is easily debunked by knowing facts. Enjoy your half burnt ribs. Pathetic!

Tell me you've never used a drum smoker without telling me you've never used a drum smoker
