I'm a big fan of only lighting about 12 coals. Then I put all the coals to the side. The lit coals I put at the end of the "fresh" coals. This is the snake burn. For burgers you don't really need to use the snake burn, but for chicken it makes a difference. If you light too many coals, no matter what you do on the airflow adjustments, the grill will run hot. Good video. Nice work!

Thanks so much for watching my video and commenting! I actually plan on using the snake method to trying ribs! Actually “hoping” to do it tomorrow! I appreciate you!

Yeah I built a snake for my first brisket. It lasted about 9 hours and I just added some more to the end. The more you do it the more you'll figure out the duration. I also recommend the charcoal baskets, easy to dump in and keeps them uniform.

Very accurate video. People sometimes forget to explain how to properly use the bottom air vents on these tutorial videos. Thanks!

Nice looking burgers. I always do a 2 zone set up with a drip pan just to help keep the grill clean. Also when you are shutting down the grill run the ash sweep 5 to 10 times to get the junk out of the bottom before it cools and hardens.

Thanks for the video man. I’ve been spoiled with a pit boss and blackstone. But I’m buying me a good ole Weber grill for next to my shop. You really just can’t beat the taste cooking on these!

Do you not use indirect cooking instead then only use the direct cooking for searing.

@@HdHd-hp6qz for burgers, as used in this method it is primarily indirect cooking. I do this to cook the burgers and firm them up a little. As I get close to desired temp, I put them right over the coals for the direct cooking aka searing. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching I appreciate you!

Been thinking about getting a smaller Weber kettle grill. I’ve had a bigger one for the good amount of 4 years. It don’t use it as much and it just takes up space.

I actually used to have one with the large tray. I actually agree with you it took up a lot of ground and I found it being more of a pain to move around. I actually really like this grill, I hope to expand my cooking equipment in the future. Such as a blackstone, PK grill, and maybe a nicer Traeger one day!
