'Prepurrrrred'…….surrrrrus lol…my man!
Please say shrimp gumbo shrimp stew shrimp kebab!! We got to hear your bubba gump!! Great tips by the way
Kingsford Match Light Charcoal is one of Kingsford big sellers at Walmart. Never heard of any complaints about food tasting like lighter fluid?
Fantastic advice and totally agree with everything you said.
Love that Southern accent too
You're Gold Mate. Cheers for that. M 🇦🇺
Great video .I'm looking to buy a grill
Mistake #2 , I’d have to disagree with. You are limiting your cooking space with that method. I simply have another tray that I put my meats in if I need to remove it from the heat.
Country 😂
the food only taste like he fluid if you start using to soon.
Thanks so much I really appreciate you taking time to make this video, I did not know about the cooling zone, and not waiting for the charcoal to ice over. Keep up the good work. Thanks again.
On pure accent alone I say he knows what he’s talkin about
This guy can grill my steak any day!
Thank you for your video. Very well done.
Comment on mistake #1. Lighter fluid will ruin your grill. Once you put it in your grill it takes forever to get it out. never never use lighter fluid. IT DOES NOT BURN OFF!!
I started using a chimney starter years ago and it is the way to go. Unfortunately the price of our local news paper got so expensive we switched to digital version. Newspaper with a squirt of vegetable oil is the best and most economical way to start the coals. I now use the paraffin cubes so I have to make sure I keep those in stock. I can get them fairly cheap.
Whereabouts in the US are you from? Loving the accent.
That accent ❤ Sounds just like my family from Hazard, KY. Very comfortable to me. Thanks for all the tips! I am definitely new at being the one doing charcoal grilling.
Helped me immensely, thank you
Mistake number 1, grilling on a Weber.
I use an old metal coffee cantainer with the bottom removed.
Good advice.
You have a new sub brother. Thank you and happy new year
1st time grilling today. Thank you Sir, these tips are super helpful.
i dont use a chimney and i use lighter fluid. what i do is put the charcoal in the grill light lighter fluid and then ignite it, let it burn abit then put a electric leaf blower to it. it ashes over in just 2 minutes and no i dont taste any lighter fluid because when you do it like this the super high heat literally vaporizes all of it.
