A friend turned me onto these ugly drum smokers and they are too neat,very simple to build,cost around $60 bucks to make,the hardest part is finding a food grade 55gal drum and making the charcoal basket.I picked the lid up at a flea market,I use a "ice melter" on a propane tank to start the charcoal and thats all there is. If you Google UGLY DRUM Smoker,you can get all the directions.    

Just saw this Bill. I'm interested.

That's cool!
