Ugly drum smoker

Postby warlock1971 » 15 May 2014, 11:05

I'm wanting a build a UDS and wondering if anyone knows where I can get a food grade drum from in the west Yorkshire area or someone that delivers cheaply.

I don't know about your area but Ebay usually finds drums for about £10 or join yuor local freecycle and put a wanted add up and ask around all your friends, chance are someone they know will have one lying around

Have a look for pallet and case makers as well. I got mine from a pallet place near me that had a few in their yard and were just waiting for someone to ask for one.

Hi mate sorry for the late reply.

Yes, the place in Rotherham is cunningly called Sheffield Tank and Drum Company.

http://www.tankanddrum.co.uk/

They sold me a 55 food grade gallon drum, freshly shot blasted to order, with a removable lid & clamp (very important). Majority of their barrels were used for coconut oil.

It cost £15. Boo yah!

PS the place is just off the M1 too so easy drive from WY.
