Here is my latest. I went from Ugly drum to what I call GHETTO FABULOUS!
Here is a Ss 55 gallon barrel with a Ss lid. To pretty to butcher, so I did the Big Poppa kit.
Easily the most efficient UDS I have built.

Dunno if I would call that "Ugly" exactly. And doesnt that bottle opener get a touch warm?
 
Here's my setup.

18.5 wsm
22" webber kettle
Cheapo walmart propane grill for burgers and dogs

Here is my $0 UDS. Well I do have $ Into a whole quart of high temp paint. It was a whim and a challange during a family get together. Free drum that was going to be a trash burn barrel, speaker magnet on bottom side 2" bung to control air inlet, metal milk crate as charcoal basket, random grill grate from the camp fire pit that happened to fit, some bolts to hold the grill and others for Handles on the lid, and a 2" scrap pipe stack out the top. I made some killer ribs that weekend, and have made more ribs, an awesome corned beef brisket, chicken, thanksgiving turkey, and pork butt. Did I mention the cost?!

This pic includes upgrades of paint, the only cost, and an inlet pipe with flapper-damper to replace the speaker magnet that now helps position the cheap kitchen probe thermometer.

Now I need to make one small enough for camping.
 
Dedicated smoker (though I'm building a mini wsm and a custom controller) and my keggle filling for a brew on black Friday:

Save it from the dump three years ago. Mostly a cold smoker. I finish it off in the oven. Charcoal fire with cherry chunks soaked in Apple cider or juice. I got a food grade 55 gallon drum, want to make it wood and propane. Any ideas?

Smoke rolling out of my new smoker during it's "seasoning" Decided to get a Masterbuilt 30 to go along with my WSM

 
Here's a pic of my pit when I was smoking a ham for some 5 hours with charcoal & ash wood...

As you can see,it was New Years Day 4 years ago. I pulled it up near the front stoop to make it easier to get to. My wife snapped this pic from the sidelights by the door.
 
I have a few. The Egg is my latest addition. The Masterbuilt 7 in 1, I couldn't find any pictures of mostly it stays in the RV. When I need a cold smoke I plumb the drum smoker to the large cabinet smoker with foil tape and dryer vent pipe.

The snow reflection makes it look like there is a custom paint job of smoke. And All I have is a 18.5 WSM. Though I cannot complain as it has treated me well so far. I think I need to fire it up again this weekend if only on a chicken.
 
Small but effective! :) Oster 16 quart smoker/roaster, newly procured. So far, have done a full turkey breast (Monday, when the thing showed up) and today, brined center-cut, bone-in pork chops. Both turned out very well!

Is that actually marketed as a smoker as well, or do you use some other gadgets to make it smoke?
