    OK here goes. and great questions by the way. 1. the grill doesn't have a temp setting since it is charcoal and I am using indirect heat. 2. use as many briquettes as needed. During the process I am adding more to keep the heat. Once the coals are dying down then just add another layer to the top of the coals. 3. You can regulate the heat with the damper on the chimney. I spoke about that in the video. 3. If you use the venting on your grill Then it shouldn't get too hot. When the temp gets higher than you want then close the vents (or dampers) If the temp is getting lower than you want then open the vents (or dampers) 4. No set time on how long it cooks for. Sometimes the meat will stall and that will cause the cook time to be longer. Rule of thumb on Pork Butts. 190 to 205 degrees Internal temp of the meat for pulled pork and 165 degrees for sliced pork. 5. I wrapped it in foil after it has been smoked for 4 hours. This helps keep the heat and juices in the meat while it is finished cooking. And I do it after 4 hours because after a meat has smoked for 4 hours it will not absorb any more smoke. 6. I want to thank you for your feedback and questions. Its comments like this that I use to make my channel better. I hope this helps and I hope you have a great day.. Thanks you for watchng

    In this day and age with so many videos on the science of barbecue and smoke, gadgets for regulating and monitoring temp and novel long writings about technique (All useful information) barbecue can be intimidating and confusing. It is good to remember that it is supposed to be fun and relaxing and all you need is a good grill, a thermometer to make sure the meat is done and a willingness to sit beside the grill for a few hours.

    • @VansWorld
      @VansWorld  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep. There is another method call snaking coals. Put the coals in a small pile around the edge of the grill like a snake. Just don’t join the ends to make a complete circle. Light one end of the charcoal. It will burn slowly like a cigarette till it reaches the end of the snaked charcoal. And if it looks like you will need more charcoal, you can just add more to make the snake longer

    • @VansWorld
      @VansWorld  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s hard to keep a steady temp when cooking like this. But brisket is best at a steady temp of 225 degrees. I cool mine till the internal temp is 200 degrees.

    • @VansWorld
      @VansWorld  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I bought a charcoal chimney. When the temp gets near 210 I pour the hot coals from the chimney over the other coals. It jumps up pretty quick. You can control it with the damper on top of the grill. Open it for hotter and start closing it off to bring the temp down. You can pick up one of those chimneys at Walmart for about $15

    • @SRT92
      @SRT92 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Vans World yea i already got one of those, its just they tend to die out fast for long cooks. I use kigsford. Maybe i should use a different brand? Or just use more coals? Im scared of adding more coals to risk over cooking the meat.

      After several hours on the smoker is when I wrap the meat in foil. The meat can only absorb so much smoke then its a waste of good wood to try to keep adding smoke. Wrapping in foil helps the meat not to stall and it helps for more tender juicy meat. Great question. Thanks for asking
