55 gallon drums?

Post by BLT » May 30, 2016, 7:54 pm

I am in need of a steel 55 gallon drum. I'm going to guess there is a shop in town with big stack of them, I just haven't seen it yet. Anyone know such a shop?

Drum is for building a smoker. https://www.fix.com/blog/building-an-ugly-drum-smoker/

Plenty on the Nong Bua Lam Phu road on the right hand side.

A charcoal source is something else to dig into.

My friend in Pattaya who does amazing barbecue loves charcoal made from mango wood, but he cant always find it. Hopefully I can find someone with either mango charcoal or just mango wood for sale. Until I find something special, I'll probably just use the local lump stuff, some of it is actually really good. My experience has been that the stuff that is made from sticks is far better tasting then stuff made from mill ends. You just need to look closely at what's in the bag.

Out on the highway towards NBLP on the right when heading out of UD? I'll have a look, thanks!

Very much doubt you will find a 55 gal Bbl in Thailand, you should have no problem finding 42 gal Bbl's though :-"

No problem, it was my day to be a pedantic *****! :?
Be aware though if you do use a old drum that they rust out very quickly here, ideal climate for oxidization.
Good luck
