Drum Smokers (UDS)

The ugly drum smoker is the open secret of competition BBQ — simple to run, rock-steady on temperature, and mobile enough to roll wherever the cook takes you. Our handcrafted UDS delivers competition results in your own backyard.

Big Flavour, Small Footprint

Drum smokers are a favourite of competition BBQ teams for good reason — they're easy to use, produce consistently outstanding results, and cost a fraction of what other serious smokers run. They're portable too, which is exactly why you'll spot them at competitions across the country.

From simple setup and effortless mobility to consistent temps and that deep, clean meat-smoking flavour, the drum smoker is the perfect medium-sized build for at-home grillers and weekend pitmasters. Hand-built in Quispamsis from heavy-gauge steel, every R&R drum is dialled in before it leaves the shop.

Why A Drum

Built To Make You Look Good

Four reasons competition teams and backyard cooks keep coming back to the UDS.

Set-And-Forget Temps

Lock in a steady low-and-slow burn that holds for hours with minimal babysitting.

Mobile & Compact

Caster wheels and a tidy footprint mean it rolls to the tailgate, the comp, or the deck.

Consistent Results

Even heat and clean smoke deliver competition-grade brisket, ribs and pork — every cook.

Outstanding Value

Serious capability at a fraction of the price of a big offset or tank build.

What's Included

Build Options & Outfitting

Every R&R drum ships ready to cook, with the hardware that makes a UDS run like a champ. Pick your finish and we'll build it to suit.

  • Heavy-duty stainless charcoal basket for long, even burns
  • Diffuser plate for steady, indirect heat and clean smoke
  • Caster wheels for easy mobility around the yard or the comp
  • Your choice of durable satin or coloured finishes
Coloured drums are rated for smoking temperatures only — keep them in the low-and-slow zone. Choose the satin finish if you plan to run hot.
