    Does anyone have a source for 55 gallon drums in the city? It doesn't have to be incredibly clean, I can burn it out with a large torch, but I'm making a grill with it so food grade would be ideal.

    From what I understand, these are becoming increasingly scarce: the City of Evanston was cleaning them up and using them as garbage cans, but their supplier found it has now become cheaper to re-use or recycle them instead.

    You can check this place out...my brother got one from them to make into a grill. Seems to cook up real nice and the price was not bad.
