Or can it be with a cleaning? I want to use it as a meat/food smoker** A: I was wondering the same thing, but after some searching I would say it's NOT food safe.In the description it says that this drum has an "interior epoxy phenolic coating" and it doesn't not mention if this is a food grade barrel. So I would advise NOT to use this product to store water or food.Try ebay for 55 gallon food grade barrels. Here's some sellers that I found who sell themseller: browerville - $89.00 & free shippinguser: sunkist1956 - $59.00 & free shipping **Q: Is this safe for a fire pit? I don't know if the inside coating is toxic if its burned or not..** A: I never thought about if inside coating is toxic or not but the reason I made this purchase is to burn brush. I used it almost everyday for 18 hours long burning tree brush. There was never any unpleasant smells. The barrel has kept up well despite being used as a fire pit. Naturally it becomes blackened from the heat. **Q: How is the drum shipped?** A: It shipped in a cardboard box, by ups right to the front door. It was in great shape! **Q: When do you use the lid?** A: I use the lid after a burn. Last thing I want is for my ashes to get wet. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/55500326-skolnik-carbon-steel-open-head-drum-55-gallons-bolt-ring](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/55500326-skolnik-carbon-steel-open-head-drum-55-gallons-bolt-ring) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-09-24*
