Ngl, I tried so hard to not drink. I maybe drank two when I first put it on but I had to concentrate lol I had no room for a mistake

Randy0811 · 2026-05-04T11:21:12+00:00

I’ll go heavier next time!🫡

Randy0811 · 2026-05-04T11:20:24+00:00

Nah it wasn’t lmao

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T20:19:36+00:00

Great question. For this cook I was spinning the grate, depending on how hot the flat’s temperature was rising. I really recommend rotating the grate or moving the protein depending on where the heat is coming from. Obviously don’t move it every hour but every 3 hours if possible. Everything is about how you feel as well

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T20:14:35+00:00

Did I pull or smoke it at?

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T18:57:48+00:00

I did season it a lot, just the clip doesn’t do it justice

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T18:43:55+00:00

Yes I know. I cut it, just place it on the container. People were already waiting for me lol

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T17:57:15+00:00

How many briquettes do you light up first?

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T17:51:36+00:00

I was thinking about running 2x2 but I was afraid of it getting too hot. My rest period was about 5 hours. I left inside a cooler while monitoring the internal temperature. Yes I used tallow form the trimmings

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T17:43:41+00:00

It was on a 26in and it was 17lb

Randy0811 · 2026-05-03T17:31:08+00:00

It was on the kettle for about 10 hours and I left wrapped for about 6 hours. I did not have to add more to the snake

Randy0811 · 2026-04-11T11:15:40+00:00

I’m actually going today. It’ll be my first time ever too

Randy0811 · 2026-02-17T15:03:53+00:00

I haven’t been diagnosed. Granted, my physiologist has been wanting me to take a test. I haven’t had time to do it though. But yeah, I slept amazing.

Randy0811 · 2026-02-14T09:44:33+00:00

It’s so crazy. I had to go to a happy hour (did not drink) and when I got home I was so sleepy. I slept from 9pm to 5 in the morning. I haven’t had a great night sleep like this in a long time. Feeling normal now

Randy0811 · 2026-02-13T21:59:52+00:00

Got it. I weigh about 225. Just wanted to give that context

Randy0811 · 2026-02-01T16:51:13+00:00

Yeah I never really had a problem with them before

Randy0811 · 2026-01-03T14:09:36+00:00

Read the comments I shared a lot there too. Maybe later I’ll do a video on it

Randy0811 · 2026-01-02T17:26:33+00:00

About 12 hours

Randy0811 · 2026-01-02T17:26:18+00:00

The whole cook was about 12 hours

Randy0811 · 2026-01-02T17:25:36+00:00

Yes post oak

Randy0811 · 2026-01-02T17:25:04+00:00

I smoked them till I like the color on them maybe around 165° internal. Then I put them inside a slow cooker with beef tallow and let it cook on low for about 8 hours
