I need your opions. Neighbor gave me a 55 gallon drum with lid. No dents etc. One problem this is NOT a food grade drum. I want to make a DIY smoker but I am scared of the health risks. Some have told me just to burn it a few hours and it will be good. Your take? Yay or nay?

Drums are cheap. Not worth the risk.Comment

An unknown drum is NOT something you should make a smoker out of. Some chemicals can impregnate the metal and never be fully removed.Comment
