    Between the shot of the smoker with the vines in the background, the chicken, and now the ribs, you are making me a very jealous man.

    I can't deny it...I lead a charmed life.

    We are now calling him Mr. Roboto. I'm working on a second one so that I can cook enough pork for my annual pork a thon!

    I've used it more than once. It really holds the temp well. The firebox lid fits like a humidor.

    For the UDS, you have vent pipes in 4 places around the bottom of the smoker. It looks like 3 of the pipes have caps on them, only one has a ball valve regulator. Every UDS smoker I see has the same set up. Why bother with the other pipes if they're just capped all the time?

    You open those up when first starting to let a little more in and as the temps creep up you close them. That being said, this weekend I cooked some ribs and other goodies, I didn't bother with the other pipes and just cranked the valve wide open and throttled it down as the temps went up.

    The only change I would make is to figure out a way to seal the lid a bit better, on windy days I get some higher temps (300*) because air gets in at the top and fans the fire a bit. I'm thinking about putting a stove gasket around the lid and getting some kind of latch to hold the lid down.

    I'll be making a second one in the next couple of weeks and I don't think that I will be putting in the additional air intakes at the bottom, it seems to work fine without them.
