Get a barrel (actually a drum) that still has the top and bungs. Barrel

Contact food service in a Seminole Indian casino. Food grade drums are
available. Rinse them out and work with what you have. Close to Miami
and you can find these drums.

[Miccosukee Indian Village, Florida] short drive to Miami.

Drive to Las Vegas, maybe we can sell a few drums.
